World Psychedelic Classics Vol 3: The Funky Fuzzy Sounds Of West Africa!<\/p>\n
First time all compilation tracks available on LP! The twelve tracks on the record explore West Africa\u2019s groove-heavy assimilation of the psychedelic revolution, albeit a few years (and a couple thousand miles) removed from 1967\u2019s Summer of Love. Spanning countries such as Mali, Gambia, Benin, Nigeria, Ghana, and Cameroon, this collection spotlights a time of incredible creative fermentation, reflecting on colonialism\u2019s more fortunate byproduct: the fascinating and unique intersection of hallucinogenic, distorted Western psychedelia and local, traditional African music. This phenomenon of Afro-Rock is what lies at the heart of Love\u2019s A Real Thing. This was one of the first compilations of Afro Funk and helped introduce William Onyeabor\u2019s music to the world. <\/p>\n
Luaka Bop\u2019s celebrated World Psychedelic Classics series began in 2000 with Volume 1: Brazil, a compilation of the inimitable genremelding Brazilian band Os Mutantes, entitled Everything Is Possible! Volume 2: California Soul , released in 2001 as the third solo record from multi-instrumentalist Shuggie Otis (Inspiration Information), successfully reintroduced Shuggie to the world at large. Volume 4; Tim Maia: Existential Soul and Volume 5: Who Is William Onyeabor.<\/p>\n
