CD Reviews

A Fela Flashback!

punkdolphin | Punk Dolphin - NYC/Amsterdam | 12/30/1999

(4 out of 5 stars)

"TONY ALLEN's "Black Voices" CD is a downtempo percussion parade from the former drummer in FELA KUTRI's band.Filled with african rhythyms, deep bouncy basslines that swoon back and forth, I was shocked at how much I liked this CD. Which is amazing since there about 6 tracks with 2 versions of 2 tracks, to give you a total of 8 tracks. Some tracks could definitely get airplay in a more progessive crowd and some hark back to traditional percussions.Not a must have, but a CD worth checking out if you're into World music or percussions."

(5 out of 5 stars)

"AFROBEAT & FUNKADELIC fans will not be disappointed in this visionary import release from Comet Records (Paris). Tony Allen, drummer/bandleader for the late Fela Kuti, free styles his should-be-patented afrobeat grooves amidst percussive guitars, wha-distorted keyboards, flamed djembes and loud, driving bass and brass while P-Funk All-Stars vocalists Clip Payne and Mudbone Cooper coax you into the psycho sexual dance mix. This music makes most hip-hop sound really dull."
