Oneness Of Juju – Space Jungle Luv – Vinyl LP Released 20/09/24

Description

Strut presents an exclusive reissue of Oneness Of Jujus classic 1976 album Space Jungle Luv, an essential addition to the Black Fire Records reissue series. When bandleader James Plunky Branch created Oneness Of Juju in 1975, he had spent five years working on both the West and East coasts of the U.S. The groups previous incarnation, Juju, had become a fixture within New Yorks avant-garde jazz scene. Upon moving to Richmond, Virginia, Plunky re-grouped with a new set of musicians, fusing African percussion with funk and R&B. The band recorded two of their most celebrated albums during 1975 and 1976, African Rhythms and Space Jungle Luv. This new reissue of Space Jungle Luv is remastered by The Carvery and includes a brand new interview with Plunky alongside rare photos.
