"SWP Records is proud to present three Zambian legends: the sophisticated group The Big Gold Six featuring the jazzy guitar of Bestin Mwanza, the sweet singer from the province Emmanuel Mulemena, and the cosmopolitan Nashil Pichen Kazembe. We can now finally hear how they sounded. And what we hear are three different great vocal sounds the Big Gold Sixs suave harmonizing and Nashil and Emmanuel as singers were both real personalities and three great guitar sounds. These artists were the most popular of their era and essential to the further development of Zambian popular music. These recordings were made between 1967 and 76. From north to south, Zambia lies geographically between Congo and Zimbabwe, and in many ways musicologically as well. When you think about it that way, Zambian music just has to be interesting! This swinging cd is the follow-up to SWP 027 Zambush Vol. 1 Zambian Hits from the 80s. So once again, put yourself in a dancing frame of mind and let yourself be zambushed." (Womex)
