EARTHWORKS
Orchestra Super Mazembe was a popular band based in Kenya and would have played a significant role in popularising African Music worldwide if the interbational popularity of World Music had started five years earlier. The extraordinary, exciting, influential group dominated the Kenyan and East African music scene from the mid 70's to the early 80's. Ginats of East Africa lets you hear them in prime time. If you like roots music with maximum feeling, exceptional guitar and horn playing. Spuer Mazembe is considered as one of the golden era of Kenyan Lingala music acts alongside Les Mangelepa, Baba Gaston and Samba Mapangala.

- MAZEMBA@45RPM VOL. 1 - (CD)
STERNS MUSIC
The Lingala word "Mazembe" can be tranlated as 'movers of earth', and. literally interpreted, images of bulldozers have adorned most Orchestra Super Mazembe's album covers ever since the band first arrived in Kenya from Zaire in 1975. However, the story of this group lies not in its albums but in its singles. As compiler Doug Paterson notes, 'in Kenya in 1980, the average music fan might not have found it too difficult to come up with ten shillings for a single, but it would have been much harder to find the 55 shillings necassry for an album. This, then, is an introduction to the story: a selection of singles from the late 1970s into the 1980s, most of which have appeared in albums and none on CD before now. It's the story of one of most succesful East African bands of the time - a sprawling, prolific, dynamic unit that toured up and dawn the country and recorded hit after hit so that today they are stikk remembered with pleasure and afflection!
