Book synopsis

By the mid 1970s, the Southern African nation known as the Republic of Zambia had fallen on hard times. Though the countrys first president Kenneth Kaunda had thrown off the yoke of British colonialism, the new federation found itself under his self-imposed, autocratic rule. Conflict loomed on all sides of this landlocked nation. Kaunda protected Zambia from war, but his country descended into isolation and poverty. This is the environment in which the 70s rock revolution that has come to be known as Zamrock flourished. Fuzz guitars were commonplace, as were driving rhythms as influenced by James Browns funk as Jimi Hendrixs rock predominated. Musical themes, mainly sung in the countrys constitutional language, English, were often bleak.In present day Zambia, Zamrock markers were few. Only a small number of the original Zamrock godfathers that remained in the country survived through the late 90s. AIDS decimated this country, and uncontrollable inflation forced the Zambian rockers that could afford to flee into something resembling exile. This was not a likely scene to survive but it did. Welcome To Zamrock!, presented in two volumes, is an overview of its most beloved ensembles, and a trace of its arc from its ascension, to its fall, to its resurgence.Eachvolume chronicles the the history of the Zamrock scene, with never before seen photographs and ephemera. - Volume 1 inclusdes 16 track CD. Volume 2 includes 18 track CD.
