William Green - "Africa" - Magic Dream Rec. LLC

In his own words, “The song entitled Africa was recorded and released in 1982 by the super group known as Toto. It became their most popular song, reaching number one on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1983. The song was written by David Paich and Jeff Porcaro and produced by the band. I wanted to recreate the song using some of the same chord changes and rhythms that were on the original version of the song while adding my musical influences on the recording. I recorded this arrangement in 2023 with the assistance of my longtime producer and engineer Melvin Baldwin, who also played drums on the track. This recording features my good friend and guitarist Eric Essix. Eric Essix is a well-known musical artist in the music industry and has achieved great success as a recording and performing artist. Also, on this recording is another longtime friend, bassist, songwriter and producer Sam Sims. On the percussions is Darrell Tibbs. The horn section includes Melvin Miller on trumpet, Frank Houston on trombone and my longtime friend Darian Emory on tenor sax. I had the pleasure of recording the keyboard sounds at my studio known as Magic Dream Studios.”
