Loningisa 267 & 268

While I speak of Stefan at Worldservice I have just seen his last post from 2012 is a great link to some rare OK Jazz. He tells you all you need to know about the music here.

OK JAZZ DISCOGRAPHY

We have been asked a few times if there is a complete OK Jazz discography. To date the most complete one was here http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~xx3n-di/073-franco/FRANCO-0.html

I have just looked at the website of our friend Stefan at Worldservice and he has shared a wonderful new resource called Afrodisc.com

If you search through this site you can find a great discography of all OK Jazz LP Albums and also there is info on all the singles and E.P.s released on labels that OK Jazz were released on like Ngoma, Decca and EMI.

A wonderful new resource!

Desespoir - 1977 - EDIPOP 057


My sincere apologies for being so long to post anything new. Life has been very busy.

Here is a rare single from 1977 - Desespoir composed by Le Poete Simaro. It has a very funky sebene.
Sorry I do not have the cover for this so this is just a screen grab courtesy of  Aboubacar Siddikh on Youtube.

Enjoy.
