Oriki come to the rescue of all us Afro/tropical deejays, diggers, dancers and revivalists with a fresh compilation of serious 70s dancefloor hits. Vinyl diggers can finally play some of the Ivory Coast’s rarest deep funk, Afrobeat, Manding and tropical rhythm tunes recorded by such legends as Moussa Doumbia, De Frank Jr, or Francis Kingsley. The consistent liner notes focus on the original label history, Société Ivoirienne du disque, based on interviews with the producer. Original unreleased pictures of the artists and 1970’s Abidjan city and great artwork make it a beautiful collectible object.
