The LAFAYETTE AFRO ROCK BAND / THE OUTLAW BLUES BAND

Darkest Light (reissue)

Mushi 45 Japan

7" limited to 200 copies Cat: MSH 105 RE
Rel: 23 Jun 25
Funk/Rare Groove Side 1. The Lafayette Afro Rock Band - Darkest Light (45 edit) Side 2. The Outlaw Blues Band - Deep Gully (45 edit)

Mushi 45 prompt a history lesson: Hailing from Paris in the early 70s, Lafayette Afro Rock Band forged a fusion of American funk and West African rhythms, producing grooves that stuck like thumbtacks through later genera such as hip-hop and electronica. Their track 'Darkest Light' stands out for its piercing, mussitating bari sax riff, famously looped on Jay-Z's 'Show Me What You Got'. Another essential cut, 'Deep Gully', delivers sharp guitar stabs over a crisp drum break, also a backbone for numerous hip-hop and jungle tracks. The group's sessions at Pierre Jaubert's Parisound studio yielded records like Soul Makossa and Malik, both cult classics rich in percussion and horn work.
