Zamrock music came into being during a daring moment in African history when western rock music made sense with African revolution. Zambian pysch was inspired, performed, and hand-pressed between the beginning of the African country of Zambia’s independence in the mid 60’s and its economic meltdown of the late 70’s. Birthed in this moment of political and cultural change, it wasn’t long before the newly grown fuzz guitar movement was washed away like it never existed, as if it were only a dream lost between the cracks of an adolescent Republic’s stark reality.
