Honey Pie Records present a reissue on Babatunde Olatunji And His Percussion's Zungo!, originally released in 1961. A much-needed reissue of another obscure Afro-jazz piece of vinyl. This is legendary percussionist and activist Olatunji's classic album originally released in 1961 and featuring jazz heavyweights such as Yusef Lateef, Clark Terry, George Duvivier, and master percussionists like Ray Barreto and Montego Joe, among others. Zungo! sounds as some sort of an ongoing orgy in Afro percussion grooves with Olatunji at the head of a large and varied group including horns, guitar, bass, multiple percussion and drums, plus a 13-piece choir.
