Groovy funk with spacey and earthy touches from London's Bongolian! Bongolian is
the longtime project of one man funk orchestra Nasser Bouzida û-also the
frontman of fellow Blow Up funk combo Big Boss Man û pulling off a live band
sound that's as rich and far-reaching as anyone in the UK funk scene over the
past decade! He always deftly covers a lot of territory û organ & percussive
funk, cosmic keys and wild rhythms of all kinds. On Bongos For Beatniks,
Bongololian brings in some more globally flavored soundscapes û from Latin
boogaloo and beyond, madly fused with a pulpy funk of all stripes. Bouzida plays
all kinds of keys, bongos, drums, clavient, cowell, shakers, strings and
occasionally sings û with help on trombone on a handful of numbers by Tom Brady
and violin on one by Margaret Ellwood. 12 tracks on the LP.
