Hugh Mundell & Augustus Pablo - Africa Must Be Free By 1983 (Africa Shaped Picture Disc)
NEW. SEALED.
RSD 2023 Release
Nature Sounds
The reggae classic issued for RSD 2023 on an Africa shaped picture disc Before his tragic death at the age of 21, Hugh Mundell was a rising star in JamaicaÕs burgeoning reggae scene. In 1976, the Kingston native released the single ÒAfrica Must By Free By 1983Ó, produced by dub legend Augustus Pablo. The song would eventually become the title track on MundellÕs classic debut album, released through PabloÕs iconic label Rockers. Now, Nature Sounds is partnering with Augustus PabloÕs family for a limited-edition Africa-shaped vinyl picture disc highlighting this indelible track. Written by Hugh Mundell and recorded when the famed singer was just 14 years old, ÒAfrica Must Be Free By 1983Ó is an uplifting anthem steeped in the Pan-African ideals Mundell championed during his brief but memorable career. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of Rockers, this historic single is receiving a dazzling new deluxe vinyl pressing, complete with two rare Augustus Pablo dub mixes on the B-Side.
