Tony Allen & Hugh Masekela’s classic collaborative album Rejoice will be reissued in Special Edition formats on October 22nd, available as a 2CD Casebook, 180g Gatefold 2LP and streaming & download. For this Special Edition release, World Circuit have gone back to Allen & Masekela’s original 2010 mixes and added previously unheard parts from the follow-up 2019 sessions to create 8 reimagined bonus mixes. The physical formats will also feature liner notes and photos. ‘Slow Bones (Cool Cats Mix)’ is the first of the bonus mixes made available to stream now.

Originally released in March 2020 to rave reviews, Rejoice’s significance has only deepened since Tony Allen’s passing, aged 79, in April 2020. As one of the final recordings (and the last to be released during his lifetime) by Allen, and the first posthumous release by Masekela after his passing in 2018, it now stands as a fitting memorial to two fearless titans of global music.
