Born in Kribi in 1946, Eko Roosevelt, known simply as Eko, is a celebrated Cameroonian composer, pianist and vocalist, and the son of a local Tribal Chief. His musical journey began in church and he later honed his craft through studies in Dakar and Paris. Between 1975 and 1982, Eko released several LPs, singles and cassettes before returning to Kribi to assume chieftaincy. His enduring Afro-disco classic 'Kilimandjaro My Home' remains a staple for DJs and dancers worldwide, and many of his crossover tracks have been bootlegged, edited and remixed by numerous producers. Here we get the funky disco of 'Phone Me Tonight' and more soulful smoothness of 'Take Me As I Am Now.'
