Doctor L, Tony Allen, Jean Phi Dary, Jeff Kellner and Cesar Anot - Psico On Da Bus 2001

The musicians are from various African nations recording in Paris, mixing West African musical sounds and rhtyhms with interesting overdubbing and mixing, the kind of thing you just don't hear very often, if at all, an irresistible mix. Nigerian Tony Allen's drums set the pace, and the other guys are more than doing their share. And Doctor L's production brings it all together. The spoken words ain't nothin' startling, but they invariably have a calming lilt and an underlying "lets be cool" tone. In one song Allen speaks about "keeping it simple", there is a lot of good stuff happenin' here. The mix of the musicians, the writing and the producing make for a very satisfying time. Intelligent and mellow and funky.listen here
