Review by Marion

Alright, let’s dive into this gem of an album, Rei Do Palhetinho by Mamukueno. Released way back in 1973 in Angola, it's one of those records that just hits different. You know what I mean? The vibe is a wild mix of Funk/Soul, Latin grooves, Folk, and even some African rootsy stuff. It’s like someone took all the best bits from Merengue, Samba, and African rhythms and mashed ‘em together. Honestly, it works. First off, gotta give props to Jose Matias for writing these tracks—they’ve got soul, man. And shoutout to Africa Show for backing everything up with their tight instrumentation. The label N’Gola really knew what they were doing when they put this out. Now, let me tell ya about two tracks that stuck with me. First up is “Lata D’Agua.” Man, this tune just slaps. There’s something so raw and real about how the percussion drives the whole thing forward—it’s impossible not to move your feet. Like, you can almost picture people dancing under the Angolan sun to this track back in the day. It feels alive, y'know? Not too polished, but full of energy. That’s the magic of it. Then there’s the title track, “Rei Do Palhetinho.” This one’s got swagger. The melody kinda sneaks up on ya, and before you know it, you’re hooked. It’s playful, catchy as hell, and has this samba-meets-merengue groove that makes you wanna grab someone and start spinning around the room. I dunno if it’s the rhythm or the vibe, but this song feels like a party waiting to happen. Pure joy in audio form. What gets me thinking though, is how albums like this don’t get enough shine nowadays. Back then, musicians weren’t worried about streaming numbers or TikTok trends—they were just making music straight from the heart. Makes you wonder: are we missing out on gems like this because we’re too busy chasing whatever’s "viral"? Anyway, Rei Do Palhetinho isn’t just an album—it’s a time capsule. Listening to it feels like stepping into another world, where music was more than just entertainment; it was life itself. So yeah, go check it out. You won’t regret it. Hell, maybe blast it at your next BBQ. Just don’t blame me if everyone starts dancing!
