Various - Afro Psych (Journeys Into Psychedelic Africa 1972 - 1977) Artist_Deutsch Amerikanische Freundschaft ” they explainWhilst the continents contribution to the global funk, boogie and disco canon has been well documented for decades, the strong presence of rock and psychedelia in 1970's African music has been a more slowly evolving story over the years. Pockets of young Africans, turned on by Hendrix, the Doors, Santana and more, started to add heavy guitar riffs to rumbling, ever present funk, and built an afro psych scene that is still turning up gems to this day.
