Cabaret Collages and Ethio-Jazz Riffs

Verity Sharp shares sound collages from People Like Us, Hailu Mergia’s Ethio-jazz riffs and a Tuareg power anthem from Mdou Moctar.

Verity Sharp shares some nostalgic Ethio-jazz riffs from the 70s by master keyboardist Hailu Mergia, as well as new music from legendary Tuareg guitarist Mdou Moctar, which reflects on West Africa’s exploitation at the hands of colonial powers. Elsewhere there’s cultural commentary in the shape of surreal sound collages from Vicki Bennett aka People Like Us, avant-garde folk from Newcastle’s Cath and Phil Tyler, and a new reissue of jazz singer and vocal innovator Jeanne Lee’s first solo album Conspiracy, one of the greatest free-form albums of the 1970s.
