Nine unreleased and rare tracks from the amazing Roger Damawuzan also known as the �James Brown from Lom�, backed by the tremendous �Les As du Benin� orchestra, and recorded between 1972 and 1981. Born in 1952 in Aneho (Togo), �The king of Gazo� (a traditional rhythm) is one of the most popular singer of his native country. He started his career in 1968 with the �Ricker�s� but his first record was released in 1972 with his now classic hit �Wait For Me�. From 1972 to the early 80s alongside �Les As du Benin�, they worked more than 5 days a week at the Hotel Tropicana in front of the sea with many tourists around and it was a very good exercise to work and create a perfect Afro-Soul sound. During this period they also recorded many tracks, sometime in Ghana at the famous Philips studio, sometime during live session for big events in the �Palais des Congres de Lom� and studio Otodi in Lom�, always live and analog. Today Roger Damawuzan lives in Lom�; in 2014 he was the featuring singer on the smash hit �Pas Contente� by Vaudou Game and performed with the band in different European big festivals. Roger Damawuzan & Les As Du Benin can be considered as one of the biggest figure of the African Funk scene from the 70s: A must have record!
