Staff Picks: The Movers - Vol.1 - 1970-1976

For fans of: Unearthed 70’s funk

What they say: This – presumably – first volume of hits from The Movers’ may not be the most esoteric or interesting thing Analog Africa has ever released, but once more, this beautiful boutique label had done the Lord’s work. Yet again, they’ve saved some solid gold from relative obscurity and delivered it to a new generation of listeners globally. A worthy addition to any fan’s vinyl collection. - Clash

What we say: The newest anthology collection from the always solid Analog Africa label delivers a prime selection of the laid back funk and groove of The Movers. Spanning the early to mid 1970s, these organ and guitar-driven (largely) instrumental funk tunes listen like The Meters fused with the Marabi and Mbaqanga styles of the African continent, bringing forth something original and their own in the mix. - Jefferson
