Vinyl Me, Please releasing The Story Of Zamrock! anthology

This new compendium of psych rarities from Northern Zambia is an 8 LP set curated by Egon & Jason Connoy supported with a 4-part podcast series.

Here's the scoop...
VMP Anthology: The Story of Zamrock! highlights and celebrates one of the most intriguing and complete music scenes to arise in the latter half of the 20th century. Featuring 8 albums, 7 of which have never been reissued in their original form, The Story of Zamrock reflects a decade long journey that Eothan "Egon" Alapatt of Now-Again Records and Jason "MoSS" Connoy of Strawberry Rain Records have taken, delving into the Zamrock scene, finding the last musicians left standing, researching, documenting and legitimately reissuing the uber-rare albums originally released in Zambia’s cities in the 1970s.
