'Syllart presents a gatefold 2LP edition of the mighty African Pearls collection dedicated to the funky sounds of '70s Guinea, when '70s groove turned electric and took West African coast clubs by storm. By the late 1960s to the mid-1970s, Guinea's music came to the forefront of a global Pan-African culture, even being called "The lighthouse of African culture." Genuine mandingo musical explosion, the sound of 1970s Guinea, with its stunning horns, spellbinding vocals, mesmermizing guitars and formidable rythmics has yet to be duplicated in Africa of anywhere else in the world. Limited vinyl pressing of 1,000 copies worldwide.'
