PR by Jane Brace with UK tour in support of release. "Briain’s best kept secret…..a challenging songwriter and compelling and courageous live performer." – MOJO A depth, resonance and emotional punch which belies comparison.” – Q magazine “One of the most charismatic and electrifying performers in Britain today.” –Tom Robinson

BBC award-winning Martyn Joseph has announced a 28-date UK autumn tour showcasing this new album – amazingly his 30th recording. Few singer songwriters have the hammer blow “once seen, never forgotten” effect of this colossally talented and charismatic Welshman – one of acoustic music’s brightest stars. Shades of Springsteen, Knopfler and Dave Matthews there may be - but Joseph is a performer like no other - his diverse current album 'Vegas' recently gaining 4 stars in a Mojo review. Bob Harris has praised the ”outstanding lyrical intelligence” of his songs which can range from rock to blues, jazz and even, according to one critic , “funk folk”! A mean guitar player with a powerful voice, he was voted Best Male Artist in the BBC’s Welsh Music Awards and with a string of Top 50 hits to his name (including "Dolphins Make Me Cry" and "Please Sir") he has been in demand on both sides of the Atlantic for over two decades, touring with the likes of Art Garfunkel and Jools Holland and winning fans everywhere with his uncanny fusion of material. This album traces the organic morphing of some of his best loved songs – the Kosovo lament "The Good In Me Is Dead", the fervent "Proud Valley Boy" of his roots and the exquisite "Have An Angel Walk With Her" – songs that have taken on a life of their own, delivered with ever more passion, sometimes barely recognisable now from their original format. Tracks: Kiss The World Beautiful / Sing To My Soul / Proud Valley Boy / Arizona Dreams / Dic Penderyn / Strange Way / Can't Breathe / Weight Of The World / Working Mother / Have An Angel Walk With Her / Please Sir / The Good In Me Is Dead / This Being Woman / Turn Me Tender / Cardiff Bay.

Victoria Hart

Title

The Lost Gershwin

Cat.No: SPEC011 Format: CD

Barcode: 805520070119 Label: SPECIFIC JAZZ Genre: EASY LISTENING

An album of songs by George Gershwin that had been lost since World War 2 until recently found in an attic, recorded for the first time in this country by Victoria Hart, a talent who was famously discovered by George Clooney while she was working as a singing waitress in London. With guest appearances from Russell Watson and the Revelation choir. In the last 18 months, the 19 year old Victoria has established herself as one of the most exciting new vocal talents in the business. Extensive press promotion which will include TV and Radio promotion. See separate sheet for details. Advertising tba.

Following the discovery of rare Gershwin sheet music in an attic - unopened since WWII - Victoria Hart and Pavao have recorded the results of the findings on this unique new album. Though George Gershwin was a prolific writer, not all of his tunes became standards. This collection, including songs never before recorded in this country, shows there are still Gershwin gems waiting to be discovered. This is a collection of just 12 of these fascinating songs, brought to life for a contemporary audience by "George Clooney's singing waitress" Victoria Hart and the Brit nominated string quartet Pavao. Guests include Russell "The Voice" Watson, Revelation (stars of "The Last Choir Standing" TV Show), critically acclaimed jazz artist Atila and MOBO nominee Tony Kofi. The arrangements and style mark a new departure for 19 year old Hart, whose brand of "swing pop" has attracted many admirers since her career began in earnest less than 18 months ago. This is her second full album and her most challenging musical enterprise to date. Tracks: You Are You / Tonight's The Night / Isn't It A Pity (with Russell Watson) / Ask Me Again (with Tony Kofi) / Vodka / I Won't Give Up (with Atila) / My Sunday Fella / Innocent Lonesome Blues Baby (with Revelation) / Little Jazz Bird / I Can't Be Bothered Now / When You Want 'Em You Can't Get 'Em / I Won't Give Up (Single Version)

Carolyn Wonderland Miss Understood RUF1143 710347114321 CD RUF RECORDS BLUES Producted by nine-time Grammy winner Ray Benson, this album has helped one of Austin’s best-kept secrets burst onto the US national scene. It was just a matter of time.

It’s the driving lap steel at the heart of the album that sets the tone establishing this latest Texan blues siren as a real player. As a vocalist, too, she oozes soul and can funk it up with the best of them with a smoky drawl somewhere between the Bonnies Bramlett and Rait. Yet another impressive addition to the Ruf catalogue. Tracks: Misunderstood / I Found The Lions / Bad Girl Blues / Walk On / Still Alive And Well / Long Way To Go / I Don’t Want To Fall For You / Trouble In The City / Throw My Love / I Live Alone With Someone / The Farmer Song / Feed Me To The Lions.

The John Henrys Sweet As The Grain 270088 803057008827 CD 9LB RECORDS COUNTRY Although four band members contribute to the songwriting - songs that are rich in storytelling tradition, it is the band's unmistakable musicianship that suggests The John Henrys are not as traditional as the legendary character of their namesake. Already in demand and currently on tour in the USA, hitting markets like Austin, Pittsburgh, Memphis, Nashville and Cleveland, The John Henrys have performed with in-the-know artists like The Sadies, Cuff the Duke, The Golden Dogs, Elliot Brood, FemBots and Justin Townes Earle and are getting heard in places that are far from their hometown of Ottawa, Ontario. Produced by the band themselves at their rehearsal-turned-studio space, this album features songs such as "Lost In The Canyon" and the title track that are are sweetly laid back alt-country, while the angry "New Years" and tongue-in-cheek "No More Rock 'n' Roll" and "Ain't Gonna Drink No More" keep the album interesting with variety and humour Tracks: Sweet As The Grain / Lost In The Canyon / Padawadamie / Aint Gonna Drink No More / Thought Yourself Lucky / New Years / Truth Be Told (INEZ) / No More Rock 'n' Roll / Eldorado / Angel / Ugly Town / Golden Train.

Chris Knight Heart Of Stone DC0011 822976000729 CD DRIFTER'S CHURCH COUNTRY Ten years and five acclaimed albums into one of the most uncompromising careers in American music, the singer/songwriter whose work has been compared to Prine, Cash and Nebraska-era Springsteen by some the toughest music writers in America may have finally conquered his most demanding critic of all: himself. “Right now, this is my favourite record,” Chris Knight says of his new album. “It might just be my best. For some reason, there’s a cohesiveness here that’s not like anything I’ve done before. But at the same time, it’s not real predictable. There’s a lot of texture to it as well, but it’s a simple record. I don’t know how that happened. But I know it when I hear it.” Knight has always been an artist of fierce instinct and uncommon paradox. A former strip-mine reclamation inspector, Knight still lives in the rural coal town of Slaghters, Kentucky (population 200) where he was born and raised. But it’s been on record – as well as everywhere from rowdy Texas roadhouses to hushed New York City theaters – where Chris has forged the reputation for a stark and often-ferocious honesty that led one writer to call his music “where Cormac McCarthy meets Copperhead Road.” Produced by Dan Baird (of Georgia Satellites fame, as well as producer of Knight’s widely-praised A Pretty Good Guy and The Jealous Kind discs), the 12 songs represent a creative maturity unlike anything Knight has done before. The music itself is a richly organic sonic mosaic where snarling guitars and pounding drums live alongside mournful violas, plucky banjos, B-3 organ and even the occasional trombone and bouzouki. And for an artist known for his narratives about busted lives and broken dreams, Knight’s new songs now carry a hard-fought wisdom that gives his characters deeper seams of pain, pride and ultimately, hope. "They’re all pretty hard-nosed songs,” Chris admits. “But it’s as unified as collection as I’ve ever recorded. People may not always agree with the attitude of my music, but my point of view has always been pretty clear. With this album, it’s probably more visible. I want to be able to stand on stage singing these songs and have people believe that what I’m saying is the way that I feel.” "The most dramatic, pugnacious songwriter thrown down by the Americana scene" Uncut (5 star review on Heart of Stone), Bob Harris Session to air Oct 30,upcoming Country Music People feature Tracks: Homesick Gypsy / Hell Ain't Half Full / Something To Keep Me Going / Heart Of Stone / Danville / Another Dollar / Almost There / Crooked Road / Maria / Miles To Memphis / My Old Cars / Go On Home.

Bobbie Gentry Ode To Billie Joe / Touch 'Em With Love RVCD287 612657028728 CD RAVEN COUNTRY While best remembered for her first and biggest hit, the bittersweet "Ode To Billie Joe", Gentry continued to prove herself a performer and writer of rare talent, issuing a string of high quality albums until her retirement in the mid 1970s. Her recordings have undergone serious re-evaluation in recent years. Her debut album ODE TO BILLIE JOE (1967) and TOUCH 'EM WITH LOVE (1969) are superb examples of her artistry at work, the first going to #1 on both the US Billboard Country and Pop charts.

Various These Times BCD191 773958119123 CD BOREALIS FOLK This collection looks at our western society through the eyes of some observant Canadian songwriters as we struggle through the first decade of this new millennium. These songs will take you on a musical journey that will make you angry, make you laugh, make you stop and think. They follow in the tradition of the broadside ballads that have been sung since the 16th century. Originally broadsides were printed on one side of a piece of paper and only included the lyrics with the name of a popular tune below the title. The subject matter was most often in the form of a complaint against the crown or some other repressive authority. Broadsides were posted on walls, in town squares, or in pubs for all to see and learn. This album contains some modern day “complaints” including the misuse of natural resources, the absurdity of war, and the excesses of our contemporary society, among others. We hope some folks might want to learn one of them too. Compilation produced by Bill Garrett. Tracks: Terry Tufts - Dirty Little War / Tanglefoot - Empire And The Right (George) / James Gordon - Another Big Box Store / Evalyn Parry - Bottle This! / Ron Hynes - Get Back Change / Michael Jerome Browne - Cancer Ward Blues / Bob Snider - Rusty Pail Blues / Eve Goldberg - The Streets Of Burma / Enoch Kent - Some Ha’e Meat / Grit Laskin - Soft And Round / Bill Garrett & Sue Lothrop - No More Fish / Nancy White - I Sweep The Sidewalk / Ken Whiteley - One World Dance / Tom Lewis - Radio Times.

Catherine MacLellan Church Bell Blues TND502 620638050224 CD TRUE NORTH RECORDS FOLK “Church Bell Blues often comes across as a therapeutic outpouring of emotion from a young artist on the rise. It's a truly compelling record from a grand singer with a bright future on the horizon.” - Exclaim Magazine It is Catherine MacLellan's voice that strikes you first. Pure and haunting, it caresses softly, insinuating itself into your heart, and just won't let go. Then, the subtle strengths of her deeply confessional, powerfully poetic songs emerge, revealing hidden layers with every listen. It is this combination that makes this release a bona fide roots music gem. MacLellan's immense vocal and songwriting talents are no secret to music lovers in the Maritimes. Her potential was first displayed in the group The New Drifts and then on her 2004 solo debut Dark Dream Midnight, but this release ups the ante considerably. It is a sparse and intimate record, one that gently fuses folk and country strains with graceful ease. Tracks: Dreams Dissolve / Emily's Song / River Valley Plains / Too Easy / There You Are / The Long Way Home / Stronger / Snow Day / Church Bell Blues / January Song / Brave Love / Long Time.

John Etheridge & Liane Carroll Break Even DRCD027 5060095360057 CD DEKKOR RECORDS JAZZ This album brings together two of the best Jazz musicians as recognized at the Parliamentary Jazz Awards in 2006 and 2008: Liane Carroll - “Swinging like hell one minute, brutally expressive and heart breakingly tender the next...utterly brilliant” Time Out and John Etheridge - "A virtuoso on acoustic and electric guitars" Time Out. The recording is the result of a "live in the studio" performance of their stage show, capturing its immediacy and excitement. The setting of Liane’s searing vocals with the powerful guitar / organ / drums groove is exultant. Etheridge’s guitar has seldom been more "Blue", and Pete Whittaker (organ) and the irrepressible Mark Fletcher (drums) are a powerhouse Tracks: You Don’t Know Me / Live The Life I Love / I Got It Bad / Sweet Emma / Picture In A Frame / Rock Me Babe / The Nearness Of You / Whatever It Takes / And When I Die / You Don’t Know What Love Is / Red House.

Various Mahavishnu Re-Defined : A Tribute To John Mclaughlin And The Mahavishnu Orchestra ESC3723 718750372321 CD2 ESC RECORDS JAZZ A compilation featuring an incredibly wide assemblage of musicians, most of whom, although likely unknown to listeners, have not only been influenced by the Mahavishnu Orchestra but have gone on to create spectacular and unique music that ventures far beyond that of their mentors - some of the new material is equally compelling. The Mahavishnu Orchestra, considered by many to be the greatest Jazz-fusion group of all time, was formed in late 1970-early 1971 by John McLaughlin, a brilliant guitarist with a jazz-rock pedigree that included work with the Graham Bond Organisation in the mid-60s, and with the electrified Miles Davis on his landmark "Bitches Brew" LP in 1969. Their musical style was an unprecedented blending of genres, combining high-volume electrified rock with complex rhythms in unusual time signatures, an improvisational concept that was rooted in jazz as well as Indian music, and harmonic influence from European classical music. CD1: Gary Husband - Celestial Terrestrial Commuters / Nguyen Le - Dding Dek / Mitchel Forman - Thousand Island Park / Pascal Bournet - Guardian Angels / Hr Big Band Feat. Billy Cobham - Eternity’s Breath Pt. 1+ 2 / Ron Thaler - Some Timeless / Mahavishnu Project – Sanctuary / Jim Beard - In All Her Finery / Pete Mccann – Jm / John Stowell - A Lotus On Irish Streams / Trinity - Visions Of Fire / Lucas Pickford & Steve Hunt - The Wish / Gustavo Assis-Brasil - The Same Day. CD2: Wild Strings Quartet - Trilogy / John Bruschini - Way Down / Radio.String.Quartet.Vienna - Meeting Of The Spirits / Dennis Chambers - Paris On Mine / Göran Klinghagen Trio - Do You Hear The Voices That You Left Behind / Mahavishnu Project String Quartet - La Mere De La Mer - Smile Of The Beyond / Vic Stevens - Would You Like To Dance ? / Kimo Williams & Kimotion - John’s Blues / Pascal Bournet & 10. Enrique Alberti - Open Country Joy / Gianfranco Continenza - One Word / Mads Tolling - Song For John / Richard Smith - Cosmic Strut.

Lili Anel Life Or Death ESC3724 718750372420 CD ESC RECORDS JAZZ Singer/songwriter Lili Añel draws varied comparisons - from tTe Beatles to Joni Mitchell to Steely Dan to Nina Simone. Surprisingly, these influences and more are easily audible in her diverse and original repertoire. This artist's forward and wide-open vocals are refreshing, while the melodic hooks of her fearless songs never cease to amaze. Blessed with a soulful croon reminiscent of Nina Simone or Joan Armatrading (whose “Down To Zero” is done justice to here), Añel has put together tales of life, love and heartbreak draped in a number of musical styles. “Her songwriting is consistently excellent, oftimes Joni Mitchell sharp, and her wide-ranging but unswervingly thoughtful performances do her songs full justice”. – JazzTimes Tracks: Thin Line / Nothing In Common / If / Lay Down Play Dead / 2 Much Better / Life Or Death / Dream Again / The Way Out / Won’t You Stay / Down To Zero / No Matter What Love / Between Me / Over You / Land On My Feet / I’m Sorry.

Lambert, Hendricks & Ross Sing A Song Of & Along With Basie JASCD480 604988048025 CD JASMINE RECORDS JAZZ It is fair to say that Dave Lambert, Jon Hendricks and Annie Ross set standards in style and musical ability. The trio’s contribution to jazz vocal cannot be underestimated and their vocal gymnastics dramatically changed the sound of other vocal groups. They were voted best vocal group in Downbeat's readers poll five years in a row. This release presents two complete albums on one CD. The first features a rhythm section based on Count Basie’s “New Testament” band with the vocalese practitioners Lambert, Hendricks and Ross executing the tricky lead and section work. Annie Ross is astonishing as she hits impossibly high trumpet parts with aplomb. Then on the second you have the thrilling, ultra swinging sound of the full Count Basie Orchestra plus appearances from Joe Williams. In fact there's enough words and music here to make it seem like some sort of crazy jazz opera. The CD also includes two bonus live tracks recorded with Count Basie. Tracks: Every Day I Have The Blues / It’s Sand Man / Two For The Blues / One O’Clock Jump / Little Pony / Down For Double / Fiesta In Blue / Down For The Count / Blues Backstage / Avenue C / Jumpin’ At The Woodside / Going To Chicago Blues / Tickle Toe / Let Me See / Every Tub / Shorty George / Rusty Dusty Blues / The King / Swingin’ The Blues / Lil’ Darlin’ / Bonus live tracks: Doodlin’ / Everyday I Have The Blues.

Humphrey Lyttelton Humph Experiments LACD266 5017116526626 CD LAKE JAZZ Throughout his career Humphrey Lyttelton was never averse to experimenting with his music – he introduced the saxophone into a traditional jazz band, he did away with the banjo, both quite revolutionary moves in their way but in the early 1950s (the earliest of these tracks was recorded in 1951) it was groundbreaking. Tracks: The Bell-Lyttelton Jazz Nine: Take A Note From The South / Open House / The Bell-Lyttelton Jazz Twelve: Apples Be Ripe / The Bell-Lyttelton Jazz Ten: Midnight Creep / The Bell-Lyttelton Jazz Nine: Small Hour Fantasy / The Grant-Lyttelton Paseo Jazz Band: Friendless Blues / Original Jelly Roll Blues / Fat Tuesday / Mam’selle Josephine / Original Jelly Roll Blues / King Porter Stomp / London Blues / Mike’s Tangana / The Lyttelton Paseo Jazz Band: Muskrat Ramble / Mam’selle Josephine / Humphrey Lyttelton & His Band with Ade Monsbourgh: Hoppin’ Mad / Don’t Monkey With It / Forgotten Woman’s Blues / Sweet Muscatel / Get It / Stay With It / Ugly Duckling / Lazy Ade’s Late Hour Boys with Humphrey Lyttelton: Hook, Line & Sinker/ Backroom Joy. Bonus Tracks: Lazy Ade’s Late Hour Boys: Hullo Jim Eadie / Turn Up A Card.

Joined by John Medeski (Medeski, Martin & Wood) on various keyboards, Andy Hess on bass and Stanton Moore (Galactic) on drums, this one grooves hard and will definitely draw attention outside of the jazz world. Will has been involved with a host of boundary stretching groups, ranging from jazz, hip hop and world music to experimental music, with many stops in between. He has performed and recorded with Jai Uttal and the Pagan Love Orchestra, Peter Apfelbaum’s various band incarnations, Beth Custer, The Coup, Pothole and T.J. Kirk, to name but a few.

Michael Occhipinti The Sicilian Jazz Project TND516 620638051627 CD TRUE NORTH RECORDS JAZZ The Sicilian Jazz Project has been dazzling audiences since its performance debut at the 2004 Distillery Jazz Festival in Toronto.

The brainchild of JUNO Award nominee Michael Occhipinti, The Sicilian Jazz Project features some of Canada’s finest Jazz musicians and Italian traditional vocalists, including Roberto Occhipinti, Ernie Tollar, Dominic Mancuso, Kevin Turcotte, Louis Simao and Barry Romberg. The Sicilian Jazz Project’s January 2007 performance at the Glenn Gould Studio in Toronto for CBC’s On Stage Series was one of the most talked about concerts broadcast by the network, which along with selective sold out dates has built sizable anticipation and demand in the jazz and Italian community for the debut Sicilian Jazz Project album.

AMB (aka Axe Murder Boyz) God's Hand HH47042 756504470428 CD HATCHET HOUSE RAP/HIP-HOP In a time of formulaic hip-hop and disposable dance music, the wicked underground keeps growing, and drawing young fans who care about their music. They need it to say something. They need it to do something. They need it to feel like something. They need it to poke, to pinch, and sometimes to stab. They need it wicked, and they need to hear it from faces they can relate to. The Axe Murder Boys may be young, but youth gives them the vitality to work hard, and the creativity to break the mould. They've already done the time of a dozen other rappers: with seven self-produced albums, and their 2006 Psychopathic Records release Blood In, Blood Out. They've performed on national tours, alongside ICP, Twiztid, and Blaze. They've starred in Psychopathic music videos, and put out weekly video freestyles on their website. They have their own record label, and support their own artists. They've earned a place in the genre, and in the CD players of Juggalos everywhere. This album grew from a concept five years in the making, covering their time before Psychopathic through their wicked debut and into the present. The word has been out, the anticipation builds, and God's Hand is ready to drop... * AMB produced the album themselves, with additional production done by Denver producer Improv and Hatchet House artist Dj Clay * Guest features include new underground artist Pray of Canonize Productions and underground heavyweights Big B and The Dirtball of Suburban Noize Records. Tracks: Tears of Blood / Gods Hand Killers / Overcome / Regardless / Redrum Where I'm From / Grindin'/ ??? / Scrub Life / F.R.E.S.H. / Underground Sorcerer / Apocolypse / Rose Garden / Canonize / Skeet / Peace / Karmakazi / My Brothers Keeper / Heart Attack / I Stay Wicked / Lord Help Me.

Vic Anselmo Trapped In A Dream 35460412 4028143604127 CD OMNIAMEDIA ROCK/POP Go on a journey to the world of emotions, art, and mystique with the debut album of a wonderful Latvian Goth/Alternative singer and songwriter Vic Anselmo. A great invention, stunning voice and wide musical horizon let her find her own special ways in creating music. Her songs sound like a soundtrack to dreams. They are very sensual and will amaze you with their dynamic contrasts and sound variety. All that comes together with an impressive onstage image. The album has been produced by two members of the Latvian Progressive Death Metal band Neglected Fields, Herman Rigmant & George Kadolchik, and engineered by Gints Lundbergs, who is known as a producer for the Latvian folk metal band Skyforger.

Sean Walsh Band Time Traveller Sex Machine CRZ255109 850295001097 CD CORAZONG ROCK/POP Tagged as a bluesrock jam band, this Dutch trio are Seán Walsh (vocals, guitar, harmonica, kazoo), Kai Liebrand (bass, Hammond organ, church organ, accordion, backing vocals) and Edwin van der Burgt (drums, glockenspiel, percussion). Along with a guest synth player and, on one track, an 8-piece brass band, they cut this album more or less off the cuff at Velvet Overlook studios (except for the church organ!) in their hometown of Tilburg. "We entered the studio pretty much without any preparation," van der Burgt explains. "We've also used extraordinary instruments while at the same time trying to push the studio envelop to its limits," Liebrand adds. Seán Walsh sums up, "If you really have to rely for an extended period of time on your fellow band members, a lot of new issues come into play. We did anything we could to catch that great vibe on tape. Dazzling but hard!" In the result, a reviewer has said, "One smells the scent of Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, The Who, a whiff of psychedelics, but also the raw tang of Rory Gallagher." Tracks: Mr Crankypants / Hey Babe / Cinderella Princess / Up The Wall / Sirkus / Free As A Bird / Trouble / Last Man Standing / The Devil Wouldn't Bargain / Little Bridgess / Spoonful / One More For The Happy Few.

Richie Havens Richard P. Havens, 1983 RVCD274 612657027424 CD RAVEN ROCK/POP Despite the title, this ambitious project was originally released as a double LP in 1969, the fifth album by the New York folk/rock singer-songwriter and his third for MGM's Verve Forecast label. Divided almost equally between originals and covers, and combining 12 studio tracks with five live recordings taken from a July 1968 concert, the music has the moving and melancholy vibe, yet also somewhat rambling feel, typical of Havens in his prime. Two of the live cuts, "Run Shaker Life" and "Do You Feel Good?", present a more exuberant and very lively context. It wasn't too long after the release of this album that Haven's opening performance at the historic Woodstock festival brought him to worlwide attention. Tracks: Stop Pulling And Pushing Me / For Haven’s Sake / Strawberry Fields Forever / What More Can I Say John? / I Pity The Poor Immigrant / Lady Madonna / Priests / Indian Rope Man / Cautiously / Just Above My Hobby Horse’s Head / She’s Leaving Home / Putting Out The Vibration, And Hoping It Comes Home / The Parable Of Ramon / With A Little Help From My Friends / Wear Your Love Like Heaven / Run, Shaker Life / Do You Feel Good? / Bonus tracks: Handsome Johnny / No Opportunity Necessary, No Experience Needed.

Orchestre Poly Rythmo de Cotonou The Vodoun Effect: Funk & Sato from Benin’s Obscure Labels, 1973 – 1975 AACD064 4260126060661 CD ANALOG AFRICA WORLD Following on from the compilation ‘African Scream Contest - Raw & Psychedelic Afro Sounds from Benin & Togo 70s’ - which featured several tracks by Orchestre Poly-Rythmo de Cotonou, including the ground-breaking “Gbeti Madjro”. Arguably West Africa’s best-kept secret, the band's output both in quantity and quality was astonishing. During several trips to Benin Analog Africa label boss Samy Ben Redjeb managed to collect roughly 500 songs which Orchestre Poly-Rythmo de Cotonou had recorded between 1970 and 1983. With so much material to choose from Ben Redjeb decided to split it into Volumes 1 and 2. While Volume 2 will be material the band recorded under an exclusive contract with the label Albarika Store, the band also “secretly” recorded with an array of smaller labels based around Cotonou, Benin’s largest city, and the capital city of Porto Novo. It is those tracks (all officially licensed) that are presented here on Volume 1. The cultural and spiritual riches of traditional Beninese music had an immense impact on the sound of Benin’s modern music. Benin is the birthplace of the Vodun religion (also Vodoun, or, as it is known in the West, Voodoo) and involves the worship of some 250 sacred divinities. The rituals used to pay tributes to those divinities are always backed by music. This fourth Analog Africa release of forgotten musical gems from 70s Africa includes a 44 page booklet, full of rare photographs and record covers and introduces three important producers who were collectively responsible for some of the most amazing music released in Benin. Tracks: Mi Homlan Dadalé / Assibavi / Sé Wé Non Nan / Ako Ba Ho / Mi Ni Non Kpo / Se Tche We Djo Mon / Dis Moi La Verité / Nouèssénamè / Iya Me Dji Ki Bi Ni / Akoue Tche We Gni Medjome / Nou De Ma Do Vo / Koutoulié / Kourougninda Wendé / Mawa Mon Nou Mio Also available: AFRICAN SCREAM CONTEST (AACD063)

Bara Sambarou Gambari '79 TOTOLO005 5060161430028 CD+DVD TOTOLO WORLD Beautifully packaged CD & DVD which includes a 26' minute documentary. The original recording of Gambari 79 was made at a Bara Sambarou village concert in 1979. There are at least 30 recorded versions of this song played by Bara over the years, which circulate the cassette stalls at street markets across Mali, but this version is truly magical and, as is so often the case in music, it would have been impossible to recreate that magic today. The original master is an old TDK cassette tape recorded on a ghetto blaster. In Rio, Kassin (producer of Orquestra Imperial, + 2, Caetano Veloso and many more) did a superb restoration job, sharpening up the sound and rendering the mono original into stereo. Bara Sambarou was born in 1946 into a griot family in Konsa, a village located 60 kilometers from Mopti, one of Mali's biggest cities and a major centre for the Peul people. During the 70s Bara Samarou's name spread all over Mali through sales of his cassettes, he was also praise his talent for playing the Hoddou, the ancestral 4 string wooden lute which is the emblematic instrument of the Peul people. CD: Gambari 79: Intro / Instrumental / Gambari part 1 / Gambari part 2 / Gambari part 3 / Gambari part 4 / Outro / Gambari 79 (Laidback): Intro / Laidback Gambari / Outro / Soul Mix 2008 DVD: Bara Sambarou, A Peul Griot Documentary (26 minutes)
