An Evening At The Fuji Bar - Vietnamese Soul & Go-Go 45s
Check out this all 45s mix made up of 60s soul and go-go records from Vietnam. It's always surprising to hear soul music coming out of countries that you'd maybe least expect to have had a scene. This selection is leaning towards the more traditional forms of music from that part of the world, especially with the vocal parts, but there are some seriously heavy bits of R&B/soul/go-go instrumentation in here. Gotta give props to Sam at the Archive of Southeast Asian Music for the efforts in digging up this set, I do wonder how much he had to go through to find these though!
