Description

The newly remastered edition of the 1985 LP ‘Song of the Motherland’ by Shabaka’s father  AnkAnu(formerly Anum Iyapo) will be reissued via Native Rebel Recordings.   The album was remastered by Guy Davie at Electric Mastering, and has new cover art and design by Anum. The album will be available  May 25th (African Liberation Day)

Info/Bio
Afrika Liberation Day (ALD) is observed on the 25th May. Events have historically been held on the weekend/bank holiday surrounding this date, which makes this coming weekend, ALD weekend.
The Album is a triumphant celebration of Afrikan-Caribbean verbal expression. The songs combine to haunting effect, the Rastafari Nyabinghi' drumming of Jamaican and continental Afrikan and Pan-Afrikan percussion and musical styles (even an Australian Aborigine Didgeridoo) with his folk-roots based Afrikan Jamaican vocal style. 

The result is uniquely creative in construction and style, thought- provoking, entertaining and spiritual in content. The power of Anum I word and sound will paint mental imagery of red, gold, green and black. 
Prepare yourself…
