          Yeah both those albums were amazing, IMO... but I'm kind of biased since I am rather partial to Afro music in all forms, especially Afro funk after you introduced me to it. ;)

      Unrelated to Orchestre Poly Rythmo, but this just popped up in my notifications and I think you might enjoy it: Ibibio Sound Machine - Trance Dance (Live on KEXP)
