Grammy Award-winning Miriam Makeba released Appel A L'Afrique on Syliphone in 1971.
Syliphone was a Guinean record label which ran from 1967 until 1984. The label was based in Conakry, Guinea. Created and funded by the Guinean government, Syliphone was the first African record label to attain funding from the state within the post-colonial era.[1] The music on the label has been described as representing "some of the most sublime and influential that any West African nation has ever produced."[2] The dissolution of Syliphone came with the death of the first president of Guinea, Ahmed Sékou Touré in 1984.
