Various Artists - Supafrico 6 - The Sound of Funky Africa

Supafrico unearths another superb collection of impossible to find Afro Disco rarities. South Africa’s legendary songstress Margaret Singana is up first with her indemand cover of the Stretch classic ‘Why Did You Do It’, a super-funky take on an already great song, previously only available on her 1977 ‘Tribal Fence’ LP. Next up is ‘Boogie Trip’ by Nigerian Doris Ebong, an uber-rare Afro boogie bomb, high on many a collectors’ wants list. The flip side features another couple of excellent cover versions, Sweet Talks’ party-starting Afro disco version of Andy Gibb’s hit ‘Shadow Dancing’ and the highly sought-after ‘Disco Push’ from late Seventies South African band The Movers - a great floor filling take on Marvin Gaye’s ‘Got To Give It Up’.
