Which reader? My guess is voodofunk Frank or analog africa Samy. Both are working assiduously to bring more of this wonderful Benin/Togo music to light. My favourite Black Santiago cut btw has got to be Paulina with its' super funky sax, organ and metal bar percussion - just brilliant. Thanks – Great post!
