David Zé – Mutudi Ua Ufolo/Viuva Da Liberdade – LP

Jazzybelle Records

“Mutudi Ua Ufolo/Viuva Da Liberdade” is one of the most important records ever made in Angola. An hypnotic masterpiece that blends Central African rhythms and Semba with soulful guitar and percussion.

Originally released on CDA with Conjunto Merengue, it captured Zé at his creative peak. Sung in Portuguese and local dialects, the songs balance rhythmic elegance with deep political weight, tracing ties to Afro-Brazilian and Latin American musical traditions.
