Hedzoleh Soundz were one of the first and most original 'Afro' bands from 1970s Ghana playing an unusual mix of traditional music from across the country tinged with western rock. They were residents at the notorious Napoleon nightclub where they met South African trumpeter Hugh Masekela in late 1973. The music for the Hedzoleh album would later be used by Masekela as the backbone to his afo-jazz classic, Masekela - Introducing Hedzoleh Soundz. The original musical score is now re-mastered and repackaged (yet retaining the outlandish original artwork), available thru Soundway Records on CD & LP. Reserve your vinyl copy today at the Superfly Records store!
