SUNNY BLACK'S BAND & Achille Johnny (1969)


Achille Johnny n'est pas un inconnu, il a déjà été présenté par mes confrères: Awesome Tapes from Africa, Voodoo Funk or Worldservice. Ce que mes confrères et moi ne savions pas c'est que Achille a beaucoup composé avec l'orchestre Sunny Black's Band alias Poly-Rythmo. Je vous laisse donc apprécier ce disque éditer en 1969 parle label Impressions sonores du Bénin.


Achille Johnny is not a stranger, he has been already presented by my friends: Awesome Tapes from Africa, Voodoo Funk or Worldservice. What they or I didn't know is that  Achille was always recording with Sunny Black's Band aka Poly-Rythmo. I let you so enjoy this rare record edited in 1969 on label "Impressions sonores du Bénin".

    Lovely old times vibe - appreciate all your work.

    You say "...record edited in 1969..." but tracks are tagged 1968. Please clarify ?

    Hello Henri,
    the sleeve is "tagged" 25/05/69. So I suppose that this record has been recorded between 1968 and 1969.
    Best regards
