Welcome to Zamrock! 1972-1977: How Zambia's Liberation Led to a Rock Revolution - Volume 1

By Leonard Koloko and Eothen Alapatt

By the mid 1970s, the Southern African nation known as the Republic of Zambia had fallen on hard times. Though the country's first president Kenneth Kaunda had thrown off the yoke of British colonialism, the new federation found itself under his self-imposed, autocratic rule. Conflict loomed on all sides of this landlocked nation. Kaunda protected Zambia from war, but his country descended into isolation and poverty. This is the environment in which the '70s rock revolution that has come to be known as Zamrock flourished.
