Africa Roots vol.3 [1985, LP]

Les Rochettes [dansers of Tabu Ley Rochereau & Afrisa International]
1985.Jul.10 in Melkweg Amsterdam

My post about and positive reactions to Africa/World Roots on Milky Way K7s made me dug into my collection. I remembered I had some Africa Roots LPs and guess what, I found Vol.3, the one which does not seem to have been released on K7 [at least nowhere found any audio nor info from such]. So I digitized my own LP, which wasn't so easy and took me more time than expected, because of technical problems.
Anyway I am happy and proud to present to you:

LINER NOTES
Since the first AFRICA ROOTS festival [1983] in Amsterdam there has been a growing interest in African popular music. Based on traditional African rhythms and in combination with western techniques a new generation of African bands have developed exciting styles of dance music. Most of them, already successful in Africa, like to present their powerful music-culture to audiences abroad.
-- LES OFFICIERS Of African Music combine the best of the Congolese music-scene in Paris, featuring 'the golden voide' Tchico and masterguitarist Denis Lacloche Their music is a superb mix of soukous and disco ingredients, high energy dance rhythms, which for sure will change your mood.
-- TABU LEY R0CHEREAU is the pioneer of the 'chanson africaine' and Zairean [=Congo] popmusic in general. Still living in Kinshasa, Zaire he now sings all over the world with his band AFRISA INTERNATIONAL - bringing a powerful show of strong soukous dance songs with melting harmonies.
-- SOMO SOMO is the new group of Zairean [=Congo] master guitarplayer/singer/composer MOSE-FAN FAN-SESENGO, who played for seven years with the fámous FRANCO in Africa. Together with the South African female:vocalist Doreen Webster he sings exciting melodies in ihe soukous style of Zaire.
-- BEMBEYA JAZZ is the legendary national orchestra of Guinea, West Africa. From the beginning in 1961 their music has been an essential part of Guinean history. Only recently have they started playing for international audiences. On this very first European live recording we can enjoy their emotional music with the brilliant guitar of Sekou - Diamond Fingers - Diabate.
-- KUMBI SALEH is a band of Ghanaian musicians based in Amsterdam. They present their original highlife music from Ghana for the first time on vinyl, after being extremely successful on different European stages, with a song about the delicate affairs of human affection - who will love me?
