BIG tunes by Mac Gregor.., ''Nan Ye Li kan'' is a sought after and well known bomb.. A welcome release that brings the two nicest tunes from the LP to 12'' format for that LOUD DJ play.

.
Originally from Martinique, Clem Marise Voltine aka Mac Gregor moved to Abidjan in 1979 searching for, what she called, her “negritude quest”. She sang about her love for her adoptive city until her death in April 2004 at CHU of Abidjan, Trechville Hospital.

A visionary composer, poet and singer, mixing Creole, French and Nouchi, she made a brilliant musical bridge between the West-Indies and Ivory Coast, backed by a soulful group of top Ivorian musicians such as the great Houon Pierre.

Fully Licensed in Abidjan, remastered at Carvery Studio on a 12inch vinyl (45 RPM).
