I do have a soft spot for some African music, whether it's the US/Kenyan mix of Extra Golden, a bit of Fela Kuti or the Nigeria Express comps of 70s funk/soul/psych. So, it's not much of a surprise that I caught myself dancing round my living room to the sounds on Best Bless, the mini-LP from Highlife.
It's the project of Sleepy Doug Shaw, member of White Magic, who has a great love of West African music - the highlife from which the band takes its name - and it's really a rather enjoyable listen. And you'll enjoy reading my review at TLOBF as well.
Best Bless is out now via The Social Registry.
