They started life in 1989 as a small record shop underneath Daddy Kool’s Reggae Store on Berwick Street in London & have grown to be one of the great authorities on World music
Their recording roster featuring some of the finest Brazilian, Latin, reggae, African and Jazz artists including Seu Jorge and The Incredible Bongo Band and many, many more.
Here in the Badgers Den so many great musical discoveries have been thanks to Mr Bongo releases. The Mr Bongo Record Club releases are a fabulous sampler of the range available and are always in my DJ crate for musical emergencies! Mr Bongo even reissued the 12'' single Beat Bop which was produced by my favorite artist Jean Michel Basquiat with his artwork reprinted in all its street infused glory.
