FRANCIS BEBEY / Akwaaba

from  Holy Warbles

Francis Bebey uses traditional African instruments and modern electronics to create a picture of the Pan-African musical experience.
Bebey released his first album in 1969. His music was primarily guitar-based, although he integrated traditional African instruments as well. His style was groundbreaking, merging Cameroonian makossa with classical guitar, jazz, and pop in a mix that could be intellectual, humorous, or serious.
In this 1985 release, composer/guitarist/singer/author Bebey used finger-piano, African flute, percussion and electric bass to draw on the whole range of African music today: traditional vocal styles (including an extraordinary “double-voice” technique), Ghanaian flute, soukous basslines. The Boston Herald called Akwaaba “one of the most amazing and beautiful records I have ever heard.”

The Pastoral – Not Rustic – World of Their Greatest Hits is the 1995 debut album by Country Teasers. The compact disc release adds “Anytime, Cowboy” and “No.1 Man” from the Crypt single, which was recorded in EdinburghScotland in 1993.
