Sea Never Dry

"Some of the music is incredibly popular in its home country, though relatively unknown in the West - a blog was the first place I heard Prince Nico Mbarga’s 1976 hit “Sweet Mother”, which sold more than 10 million copies. Though he relocated to England in 1982, he remains rarely heard outside of Africa."
