Paul Ngozi ("Nogozi" means danger) with his band gave a popular voice to what later was called "Zamrock," a cool fusion of older African rhythms and '70s rockish underground modes -- never too polished, but with a tightness that might have made Anglo groups up in London sit up and take notice. The guitars are razor-sharp here, which sounds great next to the harder rhythms at the bottom, and the album's mix of English and Zambian lyrics. Paul Ngozi recorded at least 10 albums -- another one which is famous among collectors is Chrissy Zebby Tembo & Ngozi Family. You will love this one if you liked The Witch and Amanaz. Great album, great artwork, a masterpiece from Zambia.
