#ziglibithy

Catchy soulful Afrofunk from Ivorian musical pioneer Ernesto DjéDjé.

Highlights ? This album is a winner. When I finally listened to it, a few days after finding it, you should have seen my face : it contained one song I was in love with, taken from mp3blog internet days (from Soulsides if you know this), without knowing where It was coming from. So this Zadie-bobo came out of the speakers and It was ‘wow’. Zibote also is worth listening. A wonderful feel good African album.

Sunday morning flea markets are seldom the occasion of amazing discovery and for one good memory you often have dusty fingers for lame records. But I still remember fondly this time when a woman was selling a bunch of used, worn, water damaged African records. Among them, there was Ernesto Djéjé’s Le roi du Ziglibithy. Le Roi because he was the originator and the only representative of this style until his early and mysterious death at the age of 35. When I put the needle on the record, I recognized instantaneously an irresistible track I had been in love with for years. These are moments that keep up the faith.
