Found this comp in a bin of CDs at WNYU while rummaging this morning for some backlogging music 5 minutes before my radio show. It turned out to actually be really, really good. Here's the description:
Delve deep into West Africa's decade-delayed funky polyrhythmic take on psychedelia. From the Gold Coast to Cameroon, traversing the territory of Jimi Hendrix and James Brown, this album is an African assimilation of the psychedelic revolution--distorted, political, hallucinogenic, and, of course, danceable. Thousands of miles from the Summer of Love's utopian origins, yet somehow, not so far away...
