I Know You Feel It (New 2 x 12")

Label: Smiling C

Kumasi was a South African supergroup. The member’s work as musicians in South Africa dates back to the early ‘70s, recording with various projects around the Johannesburg area. A couple of years before Kumasi got together, Jabu Sibumbe (bass) and Lloyd Lelosa (keys) were playing with The Movers, co-writing albums of traditional, disco and jazz-funk music, and Ray Phiri (guitar, vocals) and Isaac Mtshali (drums) were core members of The Cannibals, who led a similar path through musical trends of the time. Both groups created a sound that was matched by few, and their back-catalogs remain to be a testament to the high caliber of their musicianship.
