A pioneer of Sudanese jazz in the early 60s, Sharhabil Ahmed modernised Sudanese music by mixing Western influences and instruments with those of his culture: 'Haqiba music, you know, was traditional vocal music with little accompaniment beyond a tambourine. When our generation came in the 1960s, we came with a new style. It was a time of worldwide revolution in music. In Europe, the rhythms of swing and tango were being replaced by jazz, samba, rock- and-roll. We were influenced by this rejuvenation in Sudan, too' The Habibi Funk label headed by Jannis Stuertz has therefore gathered the work of this king of Sudanese jazz to make a special collection. His sound is described by the label : 'Sharhabil's sound feels more like a unique combination of surf rock, funk, Congolese music and East African harmonies'. With seven tracks, the album is a beautiful tribute to this icon of Sudanese music.
