Title: The Sounds of S.E. Rogie
Artist: S.E. Rogie
Label: Mississippi Records
Product Type: VINYL LP
UPC: 850024931329
Genre: Rock
Release Date: 2010-08-01
Number of Discs: 1
From the West African country of Sierra Leone, S.E. Rogie was a "palm wine" guitarist extraordinaire. With his guitar and smooth baritone voice, an early monophonic tape recorder, and a few pick up musicians, he produced a string of hit records which sold through Africa and Europe. Backing Rogie at the recording sessions was an ever changing band of followers playing combinations of maracas, claves, congas, and an empty box which was struck like a bass drum. These recordings from 1960-69 are the sounds of the soul in an era when Africans were breaking the chains of colonialism. They are the sounds of palm wine guitar music as it left the bars and burst forth on radio and record. They are lost sounds that have been found again and the world of music is the better for it. A co-release with Domino Sound of New Orleans, LA. Licensed from the Rogie family.
