Francis Bebey
Tresor Magnetique
A compilation of unreleased tracks, archival recordings, and neglected gems from the vault of the legendary Cameroonian trailblazer - some of which have come from fragile tapes discovered in the home of Bebey's son, Patrick. In an era when African artists were sometimes stuffed into marketing categories like "world music" or "folk," Bebey adamantly mixed and matched instrumentation that had seemingly no business coexisting - evidenced here in incredible clarity thanks to the meticulously digitising at Abbey Road Studios.
