For Vol. 5 of Mr Bongo's 'Record Club' series, the label look to a broad church - from Brazil to Cuba, Ghana, Jamaica, Japan, Mauritania, South Africa, Sweden, Trinidad and Tobago, the UK, and the US; pulling songs from the 70s up to the present day and feature a stellar cast of artists. There's an exclusive track from Sven Wunder which was recorded solely for this compilation. We also have a track from Admin which was released as a private press 7" at the start of 2021 and one we felt was far too good to only be available for the lucky few. You'll also discover one of our most treasured Gyedu Blay Ambolley productions, a full-force African disco colossus!
