Continuing the exploration of So Tom and Prncipe with DJ Tom B, Les Disques Bongo Joe proudly announces the release of frica NegraAnthology Vol. 2. Thirteen tracks have been carefully selected and remastered for this volume, digitized from studio tapes by their tour manager. The album includes a booklet with updated liner notes and vintage photos of the group.

frica Negra, established in the early 1970s by Horacio and Emidio Pontes, is So Tom and Prncipe’s most renowned musical group. Their blend of Puxa and Rumba, infused with Leonildo Barros’ guitar riffs, Armando Tito’s bass lines, and vibrant percussion, gained them recognition beyond the archipelago. This volume offers a glimpse into their musical journey, featuring unreleased sessions from 1979 and 1990, showcasing lead vocalists like Joo Seria and Sergio Fonseca.
