TO THE EBAY SHOP Alpha Blondy - Revolution
With his band Solar System, the rebellious singer Seydou Koné, aka Alpha Blondy, who was born in Dimbokro in Ivory Coast in 1953, is the most successful and influential reggae act in West Africa. He succeeded in bringing Jamaican music back to its origins in Africa, which is why he is also called the Bob Marley of Africa. He describes himself as an African Rasta.

To do this, he fuses reggae with African music, while constantly expanding the sound spectrum to include pop and rock elements. In order to reach as many people as possible, he uses a wide variety of languages: Alpha Blondy not only sings in his native West African language, Dioula, as well as in French and English, but also in Arabic and Hebrew.

His best-known songs include "Apartheid Is Nazism" (1985) and "Jérusalem" (1986). Alpha Blondy recorded his debut album »Jah Glory« in 1982 together with musicians from Ghana. Within a year he received three gold records for it.

In 1985 he performed for the first time in Europe. The following year he recorded the classic »Jérusalem« with the Wailers in Kingston. The following album »Revolution« (1987) marked the beginning of a fruitful collaboration with the Solar System.
