Description

V/A "Love is Love" (Mississippi Records)

"The styles of music featured on this LP are: R&B, Highlife, & Dry Guitar Music" (from back cover). A beautiful comp of dug-up treasures from Africa. According to the back cover the fellows at MR "hope to release 3 more compilations of this type of music over the next two years." This time the LP runs on the loose theme of African Highlife, R&B, and guitar-based melodies from Ethiopia, Sierra Leone, Kenya, South Africa, Zambia, Nairobi and Tanzania from 1955-1972. The exception is "Chemirocha" (performer unknown) which is "an ode to the yodelin' brakeman, Jimmie Rodgers." This LP had a limited run the first go around, reportedly limited to 300 copies and followed by a second edition of 200. Heavy cardboard sleeve with paste-on photograph of seated musician with guitar.
