Release Notes:
A Nigerian-born rocker heavily influenced by Jimi Hendrix and Fela Kuti, Keziah
Jones gained popularity in England and France with singles like "Rhythm Is Love"
and "Beautiful Emile." Jones was sent to a boarding school in London when he was
eight, and he started busking in the London Underground when he was in his
teens. He gigged up a storm in Covent Garden and Portobello Road, which led to
his discovery by manager Phil Pickett. One bassist (Phil "Soul" Sewell), one
drummer (Richie Stevens), and many gigs later, Jones found himself with his
first album, Blufunk Is a Fact!, in 1992. Several more albums ensued over the
next 15 years (African Space Craft, Liquid Sunshine, and Black Orpheus among
them), fixing Jones as one of the more prominent blues-rock musicians on the
European music scene in the late '90s and early 2000s.
