{"product_id":"remi-kabaka-roots-funkadelia","title":"Remi Kabaka - Roots Funkadelia","description":"\u003cp\u003eFollowing the great success of BBE’s 2023 reissue of Remi Kabaka’s 1976 lost masterpiece 'Son of Africa' comes yet another neglected and hitherto-hidden slice of pure Kabaka goodness: 1980’s 'Roots Funkadelia'. While the 1976 album was recorded at Island Studios London, roots was recorded and mixed in L.A. in the midst of a golden period for the Motown studios, and the sheer quality of the mix shows in spades. An unexpected but welcome bonus is the appearance throughout of the ‘mean machine’- Motown artists the commodores’ brass section alter-ego. Released in 1980 on Polygram Nigeria with no international distribution deal, and lurking almost unnoticed in a handful of dedicated afro vinyl collections, this is the first-ever reissue outside Africa of an album that regularly fetches £500 plus on the ‘those who know’ market’.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bbe Africa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48387962503512,"sku":"B23 - 2024","price":40.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0259\/9403\/5259\/files\/0197189319983-0600px-001.jpg?v=1717436433","url":"https:\/\/3345.nl\/nl\/products\/remi-kabaka-roots-funkadelia","provider":"3345 Record Store The Hague","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
