TRACKLIST SIDE A 1. Basa Bongo SIDE B 1. Black Pepper INFO A year after their debut album ËœOjingaâ„¢s Ownâ„¢, the Yoruba Singers from Guyana released the singles ËœBlack Pepperâ„¢ and ËœBasa Bongoâ„¢. These two songs were recorded in Barbados and released on the Green Shrimp label and became extremely popular throughout the Caribbean and South America. The music also became an integral part of the very beginnings of what was later to become the Champeta Criolla sound in the Caribbean coast of Colombia.
