TETE MBAMBISA  "AFRICAN DAY"

Barney Rachabane, tenor saxophone
Basil Coetzee, tenor saxophone
Duku Makasi, tenor saxophone
Tete Mbambisa, piano
Sipho Gumede, electric bass
Gilbert Mathews, drums

5. African Day  17:44


From the same CD as above.

The CD says it's a traditional theme, but the music/theme sounds very closely to Mbambisa's 'Stay Cool' from the LP "Tete's Big Sound", released 1988. So I'm inclined to credit this song to him.
This version seems to be previously unreleased.
But I'm in no way an expert on Jazz from SA - so I could be wrong....

Nice groups of all stars, thanks.

"African days" is coming from an unpublished session that Tete Mbambisa recorded almost in the same period as "Tete's big sounds". The complete session have been scheduled to be published almost 3 to 4 years ago by the label Jisa records but until now the project never saw the light of day. A new album of Tete Mbambisa have been briefly available in south Africa some month ago and at the same time "African Day" was again mentioned to be published but again nothing appeared. The track "African day" might be a composition by Tete Mbambisa but due to the fact that the cd "Jazz in Africa vol 2" is more or less a bootleg details of credits are intentionally not clear.
