MANDINGO - 4 Albums

Mandingo is the brain child of British band leader Geoff Love (1917–1991). Having played in Easy Listening bands such as the poetically named Manuel And The Music Of The Mountains before, he decided to go into a totally different direction. With the help of producer Norman Newell (1919–2004), he gathered session musicians around him, got hold of talented song writers and unleashed a highly explosive mixture of exotic drums, gigantic brass layers and electronic devices. While Geoff Love achieved this on every Mandingo album, it is The Primeval Rhythm Of Life where this concept is brought to life.

01 - [1973] The Primeval Rhythm Of Life (1999 Remaster)

Thousands upon thousands of years ago Man discovered that hitting two sticks together again and again caused an exciting sound...and rhythm was born.

Then he learned that by blowing into shells he could produce variable sounds...and melody was created. Later he realised that vines stretched and plucked produced new kinds of sounds...and harmony was invented.

From these beginnings came the many instruments Man developed until well into the Twentieth Century - when electricity wrought miracles - adding new dimensions to the music spectrum.

Conversely, and in line with Modern Man's quest to find his beginnings in that dim and distant past his music seeks the missing link with his origins...the roots that lie dormant in each and every one of us...the hidden desires that 'Civilization' has suffocated.

If you want to discover your roots...

LISTEN TO...DANCE TO...LIVE TO...
