Richards, Johnny

The Rites Of Diablo

A rare and sought after piece of jazz exotica, The Rites Of Diablo, was originally released in 1958 on Roulette's Birdland series. Recorded in New York's Webster Hall, with Johnny Richards' usual orchestra augmented by seven percussionists (including Sabu Martinez), and eight vocalists (The Dave Lambert Singers), this album is Richards' interpretation of the rituals of the Bantu people of Southern Africa. A wild, dark, and percussive trip, The Rites Of Diablo, is a exotica masterwork lovingly reissued on 180 gram LP by the fine folks at So Far Out. Side A: 1. Omo Ado 2. Kele Kele 3. La Pecadora. Side B: 1. Ochun 2. Oluo Anu 3. Ofo.
