First press 2025.
Absolute gold from Soul Jazz, unearthing a slice of pre-independence Zimbabwe when local bands were blending township soul, electric highlife, early reggae, and rock into something uniquely their own. Think jangly guitars, bubbling basslines, and proper lo-fi sunshine vibes. Political fire wrapped in dancefloor warmth — one for fans of Zamrock, early Afrobeat, or just vibes.
