Africa Stand Alone (Vinyl LP) Soul Funk & Disco

Africa Stand Alone (Vinyl LP) Soul Funk & DiscoRecorded at Harry J's Studios and produced by Jamie Hatcher and Seymour Cummings, this was an interim recording between the band's sessions with producers Joe Gibbs and Sonia Pottinger. In that sense it has a slightly different charcter and balance from the other classic Culture work of this period. Still completely knock out Roots with the defiant voices of Joseph Hill, Albert Waler and Kenneth Dayes soaring high.
