Strut

<b>Strut present the first ever new international studio album by one of the all-time great African big bands, Orchestre Les Mangelepa. </b>

Comprising Congolese musicians who settled in Kenya, Les Mangelepa helped drive the East African evolutionary spur of one of the greatest musical artforms, African rumba, during the 1970s. This new album, recorded by No Nation’s Guy Morley, encapsulates some of their best-loved material, re-recorded and brought up to date using the current personnel of their Nairobi Vibro residency. They represent a wonderful era of African music and justifiably warrant the title <i>Last Band Standing</i>.
