Jimi Tenor & Tony Allen get on the good foot
Strut Records series called Inspiration Information has come up with some unusual musical combinations, starting with pairing Sly & Robbie with Amp Fiddler, then Horace Andy with Ashley Beedle, and arguably the most successful combo, of Ethiopian music legend Mulatu with the Heliocentrics, which is definitely one of the must-have albums of this year, it's utterly brilliant. 

Next up, is former Fela Kuti drummer Tony Allen with Finnish muso/producer Jimi Tenor.

Hmmmm I still have my doubts about this album, and about the Inspiration Information series in general. The Mulatu one is easily the best, far and away. This Tony Allen one I'll guess we'll just wait and see..

Thanks for posting a track though.
