Hot Casa Records reissues one of the best Afrobeat albums in history, hiding two obscure and incredible tracks. A must have, simply a classic Afro-Soul album!
Kalabuley Woman was composed by Pierre Antoine, an Ivorian artist supported by a 15 band members, including legendary Sammy Cropper on guitar, and Lola Everett on vocals. This fantastic album was recorded in Accra (Ghana) in 1977 and produced in Ivory Coast by the famous label Papa Disco.
Ahui Ngoran Marcel aKa Pierre Antoine was born in 1951 in Aboisso, a city situated at 117 km from Abidjan, in the south-east part of Ivory Coast, close from the Ghanaian border. His name Pierre Antoine is a direct tribute to the French artist �Antoine�, as he loved to wear long hair and cool style jacket.
In 1977, he settled down in Ghana where he discovered the most influential and prolific Afro-Soul scene, and started to work with Pat Thomas, his wife Lolla Everett, and the famous guitar player Sammy Cropper. During this period we can hear the musical evolution of the artist, while he got really close from the Afrobeat arrangement and the Panafrican scene. The musical arrangements of the album are amazing and unique, including a hypnotic piano and a fantastic horns section.
