Lafayette Afro Rock Band

Lafayette Afro Rock Band’s Malik (Strut STRUT299LP) reintroduces the Paris-based collective’s 1974 funk powerhouse. Known for their deep grooves and breakbeats sampled by generations of hip-hop producers, the band blend Afro rhythms, horn-heavy funk and psychedelic textures into pure fire. This reissue restores the analog grit and stereo depth that make tracks like “Darkest Light” legendary. A heavyweight slab of Afro-funk history that still commands the dancefloor with raw energy.
