The latest release in Now-Again’s deluxe Reserve Edition series: the first ever anthology of Zamrock musician Mike Nyoni’s funky, psych-rock and folkloric 1970s recordings, plus bonus tracks on DL card for WAV files.
Zambian guitarist and singer/songwriter Mike Nyoni’s music is Zamrock only because he came of age during the country’s rock revolution. He preferred wah-wah to fuzz guitar, James Brown to Jimi Hendrix. His 70s recordings – often politically charged, and ranging from despondent to exuberant – are amongst the funkiest on the African continent. He was also one of the only Zamrock musicians to see his music contemporaneously issued in Europe.
This anthology collates works from his three 70s LPs – his first, with the Born Free band, and his two solo albums ‘Kawalala’ and ‘I Can’t Understand You’ – and presents a singular Zambian musician on par with celebrated artists
Rikki Ililonga, Keith Mlevhu and Paul Ngozi.
The package also features an extensive, photo-filled booklet contains an overview of the Zamrock scene and Nyoni’s story.
