Just up online the first single, 'We've Landed' from Tony Allen & Hugh Masekela's Rejoice is a must.

In 2010, World Circuit producer Nick Gold recorded the two icons of African jazz.

''The unfinished sessions, the label indicates, ''consisting of all original compositions by the pair, lay in archive until after Masekela passed away in 2018.''

Last summer Allen and Gold dug out the original tapes again and finished the project.

Personnel on the record include Tom Herbert of The Invisible, Joe Armon-Jones from the Ezra Collective and UK sax legend Steve Williamson. Look for the record in March.
