African Voodoo

Description

African Voodoo, the rare and unknown gem of Manu Dibango! 1971: Manu Dibango recorded the precious album African Voodoo in the lineage of its twin brother Africadelic. Twelve masterful Afro Soul, Jazz, Funk, or Latin gems that have not aged a day in over fifty years, and that plunge us even deeper into the dazzling discography of the genius saxophonist. The authentic material that makes up "African Voodoo," modestly described by the maestro as "mood music a little spicy," was destined for a completely different fate before becoming one of the most emblematic albums in Manu Dibango's discography. As sublime as it is surprising, African Voodoo perfectly illustrates "Afro Somethin' Music" invented by the maestro during a period interview with RollingStones. A simple yet highly effective description of the genre-crossing that Manu Dibango embodied through his music and his humanistic discourse; a TRUE citizen of the world for whom music had no color.
