It was originally \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ereleased only in South Africa\u003c\/strong\u003e on Gallo \/ CBS Records, although a 12\" featuring the track 'I Hate Telling A Lie' was previously released on Plum Records in 1983. It has now become a sought-after item due to its addictive and original-sounding Balearic disco \/ cosmic boogie-esque nature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eStimela were a popular and successful Mbaquanga \/ fusion outfit led by the guitarist, vocalist, songwriter, producer and arranger Ray Phiri; who was previously a member of the legendary band \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Cannibals\u003c\/strong\u003e. The musicians would go on to gain global fame after featuring on \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePaul Simon's iconic 'Graceland'\u003c\/strong\u003e album and the mega tour that followed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eKicking off the EP is a magical track that floored us from the first moment we heard it and one that has since become a Mr Bongo firm favourite. ‘I Hate Telling A Lie’ is a slow, infectious building groove that sits somewhere between lowdown jazz-funk, soul, reggae and gospel with shades of new wave pop and Balearic. It’s a truly stunning track that is hard to pigeonhole and all the better for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAnother highlight from the EP is the monster instrumental, synth-boogie sound of 'I Love You'; championed by DJs such as \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJeremy Spellacey (Crown Ruler)\u003c\/strong\u003e. This hypnotic groove bubbles to perfection and is a slo-mo chugger extraordinaire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWe hope you dig it as much as we do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/QCqVRmNyq6g?si=wvImf3TTzRtDju97\" height=\"315\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e \u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/HXMyi78X1Gk?si=luF4LY6Lv7HsDWJL\" height=\"315\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e \u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/K75ywY-3HZY?si=HFvzVNfOzGllaOlX\" height=\"315\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stimela","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl 12\"","offer_id":58738447516032,"sku":"MRB12055","price":3.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0972\/1384\/1792\/files\/MRB12055-Stimela-Rewind-sqaure.jpg?v=1787214114","url":"https:\/\/vinylvers.com\/products\/rewind-vinyl-12","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
