At long last! The first LP from Zambia's Fireballs, in all their fiery glory. Aside from their posthumous second LP recently released on Strawberry Rain Records, this was the Fireballs' sole LP as themselves, although they would go on to back the one and only Teddy Chisi on all of his solo records. This record has been somewhat of a grail for me, as although Zambian records are generally difficult to find in playable condition, this one has proven especially difficult to track down. Something wild for you to blast out yr speakers. Only rule is to play LOUD.
This is a strange pressing. Like many Zambian records, there are multiple variants with different tracks / track orders, and the tracks on the sleeve do not correspond to what's actually on the record. One track is actually included twice (once on each side) on this pressing, so I've removed it from the recording to avoid the redundancy. Still looking to track down the standard 9-song version, which I will upload if I come across.
To the best of my knowledge track listing is:
00:00 - She Devil
03:36 - On The Mountain
08:50 - Never Be Free
13:40 - Shikaoma
17:21 - Naimwena
22:02 - Maybe You Know
25:55 - Fireballess
30:48 - Mama Mary
