Various Artists – Joseph Kabasele and the Creation of Surboum African Jazz 1960-1963 Kalle Chauffez Bruxelles! (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Joseph Kabasele, known as "Le Grand Kalle," stands as one of the towering figures of African popular music, his African Jazz orchestra helping shape the sound of an entire continent during the independence era of the early 1960s. These Brussels sessions capture a pivotal moment when Congolese musicians were asserting creative and commercial ownership of their own culture, on foreign soil, on their own terms.
Planet Ilunga continues it's mission to uncover and highlight the overlooked yet epic achievements in the world of Congolese rumba. This time to tell the most spectacular story of all. This is the story of the creation of Surboum African Jazz, the first Congolese music label founded by a Congolese.
