1986 release album by Cameroonian prodigy Francis Bebey, also known as poet/writer. His work has caused a storm of re-evaluation around the world, and many people have heard his unique music. This work, which is considered one of the best of the 1980s also showcases a warm, sing-songy sound with magical groove that mixes rhythm boxes, synths, effects and sound processing. The album includes homemade-scale song "Sanza Libre, Mi Amor", warm polyrhythmic pop "Le Grand Soleil De Dieu", the guitar rhythms and the synths, folky groove "Toi Qui Vis Là-Haut" is full of warm vibes with synths coming in with the rhythm of the guitar, lo-fi dreamy feel "Lily", and groovy tracks such as "Kikadi Gromo" and "Immigration Amoureuse". The whole album worth it. Genius!

詩人/作家の活動でも知られるカメルーンの奇才Francis Bebeyの86年作。コンピレーション等でその個性溢れる楽曲を耳にした人も多いと思います。この80年代のベストのひとつに挙げられる作品でもリズムボックス、シンセ、エフェクト、音響処理をミックスした摩訶不思議なグルーヴに温かみのある歌心が加わったサウンドを全編に披露。箱庭スケールの歌唱曲”Sanza Libre, Mi Amor”、ポリリズムを刻むほんわかポップ”Le Grand Soleil De Dieu”、ギターの律動にシンセが入ってくる温かなバイブスに満ちたフォーキーグルーヴ”Toi Qui Vis Là-Haut”、Lo-fiドリーミー感覚”Lily”に加え”Kikadi Gromo”や”Immigration Amoureuse”などのグルーヴィな楽曲もしっかり収録。全編充実の内容。ほとんどがコンピレーションには入っていない曲ばかり。めっちゃいいです。天才。
