Urban Africa Club songs
$15.89 Always one of the best Congolese musical outfits, Kekele have made a career connecting the dots between rumba and rhumba -- Cuba and West Africa -- it's even in the title of this disc, Kinavana, from Kinshasa and Havana. But whereas they've taken a generalist approach to the musical melding before, this time they're far more specific, with an album of music written or recorded by Guillermo Portables, who was hardly a household name in his lifetime. But in the hands of Kekele you'd certainly imagine him to be a master. The arrangements sparkle and the guests, including Manu Dibango and M'Bilia Bel as well as others, offer incisive contributions. Guitarists Papa Noel and Syran Mbenza are the standouts in the band, but there are absolutely no passengers in this outfit. It's class all the way, taking the music back to its Caribbean source and letting the melodies speak for themselves in a glittering framework of wonderful singing and playing. What you hear is absolutely what you get here. But, of course, however they play it there's inevitably an African twist to the whole, subtle but pervasive, to give an extra kick to the music (which originated in West Africa centuries before the Cubans returned it). If you think of this as an exercise in multiculturalism at its finest, you won't be wrong. ~ Chris Nickson

| | Bert Williams Early Years 1901-1909 CD (2004)
Urban Africa Club album
$14.69 This remarkable CD has the first recordings of Bert Williams, the black comedian/actor/singer who was a pioneer in vaudeville and Broadway. The last of three Williams' CDs to be released by Archeophone but chronologically the first, this disc has extremely rare recordings (some taken from cylinders) that feature Williams during two different bursts of recording activity. The first 15 selections are from 1901 and include five numbers on which Williams teams up with his partner of the era, George Walker, and two selections that showcase Walker. These performances are primitively recorded and sometimes the speed varies but the magic of the duet and solo performances shines through despite the racial stereotypes that they sometimes had to portray. The remainder of this collection is from 1906 and, other than Williams and Walker's "Pretty Desdamone," all of the performances are solos by Bert Williams. While the 1901 recordings feature them backed by a piano (which in a couple cases is played by Williams himself), ...
| | Congotronics 2: Buzz 'N' Rumble From The Urb 'N' Jungle CDs (2006) (Import) With DVD; Belgium
Urban Africa Club CD music
$16.45 When long-running Bazombo trance ensemble Konono No. 1 first thrilled Western ears to the sounds of amplified scrapheap percussion on the first installment of CONGOTRONICS (2005), it was a revelatory moment for audiences whose appreciation of African pop rarely ventured past the more obvious World Music platitudes. The series followup, CONGOTRONICS 2: BUZZ `N' RUMBLE FROM THE URB `N' JUNGLE, focuses on a handful of artists from the Kinsasha-based scene, all putting their individual stamp on electronically-treated percussion. From the majestic bass drones of "Koyile Nyeka Nyeka" by Kasai Allstars to the polyrhythmic concatenations of Masanka Sankayi's "Le Laboureur," ...
