BAZALI BAM Action LP
Extremely rare, under the radar afro-psychedelic LP from South Africa.
This mysterious band was produced by African funk master, composer, guitarist and producer Almon Sandisa Memela, who was active since the mid 1950s, first as a musician and guitar teacher and then also as a producer. He is famous for his 1970s Afro funk works Funky Africa and the very sought after Broken Shoes.
Action features a cool mixture of incipient afro-funk and garage pop/psych, with one of its songs having been compiled on the famous Next Stop... Soweto compilation series that helped ignite the current fever for African music.
RIYL: Ofege, Blo, Aktion, The Apostles, SJOB Movement, Soweto and the likes.
First ever vinyl reissue, reproducing the original sleeve artwork and with remastered sound. 500 copies only.
