Vinyl LP pressing. Caiphus Semenya, AKA Mr Letta Mbulu, is a South African legend, and Listen To The Wind, his iconic 1982 debut album, is simply a superb modern-soul/boogie album. It's also incredibly rare, especially in good condition, so Be With is delighted to present this reissue. Listen To The Wind is stylistically diverse but the ingredients are never diluted. There are elements of boogie, soul, funk and jazz, all shot through with pan-African flavor, and moving effortlessly from uptempo floor fillers to more meditative, slower soulful tracks. Produced by Caiphus himself, he makes full use of a stellar line up of session musicians including Nathan East, Michael Stanton, Sonny Burke and Paulinho DaCosta. And of course, there are Letta's show-stopping vocals. To our ears, Listen To The Wind is just one big party, and lord knows we need that more than ever right now.
