19:49 PMThe B-side of this 12" is a previously unknown track (now very well known) from the mid 1980s from one of the biggest names in African music, Tabu Ley Rochereau. Balearic proto-house congolese pop cut with drum machines and trademark sweet congo horn section. A true pioneer of the congolese soukous sound, he was also one of the most influential African musicians of his generation.Supreme La Rock - Mar 5, 2024

Balearic proto-house congolese pop cut with drum machines and trademark sweet congo horn section, Hafi Deo is a beautiful track that fell into obscurity outside The Congo by perhaps being too smooth for the 'world music' crowd in the mid 80s. Tabu Ley passed away in November 2013 in his late 70s with over 250 albums and 3000 songs to his name.
