Album of the Day: Africa Bambaataa and The Soulsonic Force - Planet Rock: The Album

The perfect beat, so to speak. This sounded like the future in 1983, and still feels the same now. the beats are so crisp. There’s also some half decent rhythms behind all the pulsating electronica. All good groups need a persona. The Soul Sonic Universe added to the mystery by building comic book characters around the music. Recent years have sadly soiled the legacy.
