There's some great soulful groovers on the set.A great little record, even if we don't know anything about this guy! -Sealed. Tracks: 01 NAKU PENDA 02 THE SOUL THING 03 THAT GIRL 04 IMAGE 05 EVERYROAD 06 GET OVER 07 LET YOUR SOUL FLY 08 JUNK MAN 09 DANSER ET CHANTER Mfalme's music was inspired from his 'East African Tour ' in 1974. The rhythm of the people, their language and the hot beats of their songs left a everlasting deep harmony in his soul.
