Observations:

↳ Song: "Parisonophobie" by "Septet Matchi-Oul"
“Heard with Perception (Perception & Friends) or Baikida Carroll (Orange Fish Tears), Manuel Villarroel is also the brains behind the Machi Oul Septet in 1971, in 1972, it became a Big Band. Three years later, in January 1975, Machi'Oul Big Band recorded Quetzalcoatl. With Jef Gilson at the helm Villarroel and his ‘’supergroup’’ created a structured free music which has nothing to envy of that produced by the big bands of Mingus, Sun Ra or particularly Chris McGregor’s Brotherhood of Breath.”

Observations:

↳ Song: "Run Come Rally" by "Dadawah"
"Michael George Henry (aka Ras Michael and, for this lone release, Dadawah) was born in 1943 in Saint Mary Parish, in northeastern Jamaica. Henry was raised in a Rastafari community when the religious movement was still in its infancy and marginalized within Jamaica. It was there that he began performing Nyahbinghi, the Rastafarian devotional music that combines the influences of African drumming and Black gospel.

Henry found himself in Kingston in the late 1950s where he worked for Coxsone Dodd at the legendary Studio One. By 1968, he had formed the group Sons of Negus and the first overtly Rasta record label, Zion Disc. As Rasta filtered into the mainstream, Henry released more music including albums for Trojan, Dynamic and Grounation labels.

Originally released in 1974, Peace And Love - Wadadasow is Dadawah's magnum opus. Produced by Lloyd Charmers, the album features slinky basslines, wah-wah guitar, hypnotic keyboards, dubbed-out studio trickery and, of course, the propulsive drumming and rhythmic chanting characteristic of Nyahbinghi."

"Omar Bongo Ondimba (born Albert-Bernard Bongo; 30 December 1935 – 8 June 2009) was a Gabonese politician who was the second president of Gabon for almost 42 years, from 1967 until his death in 2009. Bongo headed the single-party regime of the Gabonese Democratic Party (PDG) until 1990, when, faced with public pressure, he was forced to introduce multi-party politics into Gabon."
