For today, I wanted to share with you “Tema Del Lupo“, an outstanding uptempo psychedelic Freakbeat Funk Soultrack with killer flute breaks that sounds like a theme of a lost Italian Western movie soundtrack a la Ennio Morricone, taken from the first album of the Italian composers, arrangers & musicians Ivano Alberto Fossati & Oscar Prudente, recorded in 1973.

This song has been covered many times and was even released later in 1975 on the mythical American label “Roulette” as “The Night Of The Wolf” by Ivano & Oscar under their alias “Al Foster Band” (slightly different version), but this one will remain by far my favorite, always dancefloor burner when I”m deejaying in night clubs – Enjoy !

Abeti Masikini was one of the most famous Congolese singer, born on the 9 of October 1951 in Kisangani (Democratic Republic of Congo, former Zaire).

After being graduated of a secretary diploma, she integrated the Congolese Ministry of Culture and Arts in 1969.

She started to become known in 1970 thanks to a singing contest on the National Congolese TV, toured in 1971 in many African countries (Togo, Benin, Ivory Coast, Nigeria, Ghana, Niger..), in Europe (she performed in France in 1973 at the Olympia Concert Hall in Paris, in Belgium..) and also in the United States 1974 at the prestigious Carnegie Hall in New York.

She recorded her first album in 1973 and around 20 others and dozens of singles after that.

She died on the 28th of September 1994 in Paris.

The song presented here, “Beya Beya“, is a splendid deep and melancholic Afro psych fusion track taken from the live album that was recorded on the 7 and 8 of April 1975 at the Olympia Concert Hall in Paris – Enjoy !
