SOWETO – Broken Shoes

Description

Recorded less than a year after Funky Africa, South African guitar wizard Almon Memela returned under the release name Soweto to issue Broken Shoes. The album features two fifteen-minute songs that saw Memela backed by none other than Soweto’s Pelican Club house band. The songs are funky, soulful, and full of swagger. Shimmering keys, soulful horns, funky bass lines, and expert guitar playing by Memela and ensemble on the album’s two compositions.
