Sterling Lester / The Paragons - Afrikaan Beat / My Satisfaction

Fakten Addictive and super-catchy classic Studio One instrumental cut led by the great saxophonist Lester Sterling, a founding member of The Skatalites.

The song 'Afrikaan Beat' was originally recorded by the German orchestra leader Bert Kaempfert and was based on South African Kwela style of music. 'Afrikaan Beat' featured on Soul Jazz Records' Studio One Scorcher. The original Studio One 45s costs up to £400!
