BBE continue to explore the little-known catalogue of Ghanaian athlete-turned-musician Sidiku Buari, whose West African style takes on disco and boogie made him a surprise star on the New York underground in the late 1970s. Here they offer up a fresh pressing of “Disco Soccer”, a brilliantly vibrant and over-the-top set of NYC disco floor-fillers that’s been stretched out across two slabs of wax (the original album was a single LP) to ensure a more dancefloor-friendly cut. Highlights include the bass-heavy, Moog-laden hustle of “I’m Ready”, the Patrick Adams-esque brilliance of “Hard Times”, the intoxicating, high-octane thrills of “African Hustle” and the pitched-down sweetness of “Games We Used To Play”.
