    #BobMarleyAndTheWailers - "Mr. Brown" (1970)

    One of those early, pre-Island Records sides that landed on dozens of dubious #BobMarley comps in the 80s/90s, meaning lots of us got to hear it cheap and easy back then. #BunnyWailer's ghostly high notes are really special, but so was #LeePerry's decision to shove that electric keyboard right up front in the mix.

    The keen ears at @blogamf hipped me to #CrammedDiscs’ 2022 release of this lost 1987 album by Congolese-born/Belgian-raised #MauricePotoDoudongo. It's future forward electro-funk, ala #ZazouBiyake - or #Prince, fr christs sake! - but steeped in the rhythms and textures of #CongoleseRumba and #Soukous. Rich, joyful, and really quite beautiful, this one gets me moving and still sounds relevant today.
