Stimela
Rewind
The unique sounds of Ray Phiri's Stimela are showcased on this gem of a 12" EP from 1986. It was originally released only in South Africa on Gallo/CBS Records, although a 12" featuring the track 'I Hate Telling A Lie' was previously released on Plum Records in 1983. It has now become a sought-after item due to its addictive and original-sounding Balearic disco/cosmic boogie-esque nature. Stimela were a popular and successful Mbaquanga/fusion outfit led by the guitarist, vocalist, songwriter, producer and arranger Ray Phiri who was previously a member of the legendary band The Cannibals. The musicians would go on to gain global fame after featuring on Paul Simon's iconic 'Graceland' album and the mega tour that followed.
