Fußnote: Interpreten: Tony Allen, Hugh Masekela. - Bestellnummer: BMG WCV094. - Anmerkung: Tony Allen & Hugh Masekela will release their very special collaborative new album »Rejoice« through World Circuit. The record will be the first posthumous release from Masekela, who passed away in 2018. »Rejoice« can be seen as the long overdue confluence of two mighty African musical rivers - a union of two free-flowing souls for whom borders, whether physical or stylistic, are things to pass through or ignore completely. According to Allen, the album deals in »a kind of South African-Nigerian swing-jazz stew« - a description borne out by even a cursory earful of the parallel harmony horn hook and loping drums of »Agbada Bougou«, the propulsive percussive swing and brass chatter of »Coconut Jam« or the skittering snare drums of »Obama Shuffle Blues«. As well as blowing exquisite flugelhorn, Masekela was also inspired to overdub some spontaneous vocals on a trio of numbers, either deploying colloquial Zulu, as on the seductively loose-limbed opening track, »Robbers, Thugs and Muggers«, with its earworm chant of »O Galajani« - township slang for any such collective of rogues - or, as on the appropriately jazz-meets-Afrobeat-hued tribute to Fela Kuti »Never (Lagos Never Gonna Be The Same)«, in English. In addition to his unique drumming style, Allen also contributes a hushed but celebratory, semi-spoken commentary to the first single, »We've Landed«. »The song is dedicated to today's youth«, explains Tony, »the lyric addresses people at seventeen, eighteen, nineteen years old, who are slowly becoming more mature, finding out who they are and realising that it's their generation's turn to wake up!« (Quelle: www.jpc.de)
