JIMI TENOR / TONY ALLEN : INSPIRATION INFORMATION [Strut]
€34.00
Catalogue : Strut / STRUT043LP
Format : 2LP, Vinyl, Reissue
Condition : New
Country : Europe
Released : 2021
Genre : Afrobeat, Soul, Jazz
Recorded at Lovelite Studios in Berlin during November 2008 with further sessions in Finland and Paris, the Tenor / Allen collaboration whipped up a raw, heavy analogue sound mixing the full range of Allen’s Afrobeat repertoire with Tenor’s off-kilter brew of dark humour, tongue-in-cheek lyrics and tight, firing musicianship. The sessions involved key members of Tenor’s Kabu Kabu band and Berlin-based guest MC Allonymous with tracks evolving naturally from jamming ideas together over five intense days of recording, fuelled by plenty of African food and whisky. Tenor’s trademark range of home-made instruments rubbed shoulders with vintage keyboards and traditional African percussion.
