Strut proudly presents a long-coveted gem from the discography of the legendary Ice, AKA Lafayette Afro-Rock Band, now available on vinyl LP. Afro Agban is the closest album in Ice’s catalogue to capturing the signature sound of the Lafayette Afro Rock Band.
It showcases the band’s hallmark intricate rhythms and masterful soloing, delivering a collection of solid compositions that defined their first four records. Likely recorded during the Soul Makossa and Malik sessions, Afro Agban (The Afro-Instrumental LP) is arguably their finest work, pushing further into jazz-rock territory with extended, dynamic arrangements.
A consistent treasure trove for sample hunters, Afro Agban continues to resonate with jazz-rock enthusiasts worldwide. The album’s standout track, Ozan Kouklé, has long been a vinyl collector’s dream, finally receiving the reissue treatment. Strut is thrilled to present this full album as an authentic replica reissue, featuring an extensive remaster by The Carvery. Blending funk, jazz, and African rhythms across seven mostly instrumental tracks, and once again produced by the prolific Pierre Jaubert—one of 1970s France’s most influential producers—Afro Agban is an essential addition to the Topomic/Parisound catalogue.
