Description
• Over the past few years Acid Jazz has released a series of reissues from the enigmatic ‘Albarika Store’ – a goldmine of records from Benin, West
Africa from the late ‘60s through to the early ’80s.
• T.P. Orchestre Poly-Rythmo ‘Le Sato 2’ is a particularly obscure release.
The follow up to ‘Le Sato’, the album was originally sold in exactly the
same sleeve as the first volume, with the new catalogue number simply
written on the back!
• This reissue marks the first proper release of the record, with a sleeve
incorporating original design in a new, distinctive and authentic colour-
scheme. This time the track list and labels are correct, giving the album
pride of place in the essenFal T.P Orchestre Poly-Rythmo, Albarika and
Benin musical library.
• The record itself sees Benin’s premier group in characteristic form –
hypnotic, heavy, heady Afro-Funk, under the leadership of ‘Prince’
Melome Clement. A must-have for Afro collectors and passing fans alike.
• Fully licenced reissue, re-mastered by Nick Robbins at Sound
Mastering.
