Info:
It’s No Exaggeration To Say That Geraldo Pino And His Band The Heartbeats Kickstarted The Whole Soul/funk/afrobeat Scene In West Africa. Mixing Highlife, Funk And Jazz, And Using The Latest Equipment, They Laid Waste To All Before Them. In 1966 Fela Kuti Was A Jobbing Musician, Eeking Out A Living With Highlife Bands. When Gerlado Pino Came To Town, It Changed His Life.<br />“pino Tore Up The Scene,” He Recalls In An Interview With Carlos Moore. “i Knew I Had To Get My Shit Together. And Fast!”
