From wikipedia's page for Stewart Copeland:
In 1985, Copeland released a solo album, The Rhythmatist. The record was the result of a pilgrimage to Africa and its people, and it features local drums and percussion, with more drums, percussion and other musical instruments added by Copeland. The album was the official soundtrack to the movie of the same name, which was co-written by Stewart. He also starred in the film, which is "A musical odyssey through the heart of Africa in search of the roots of rock & roll." (Copeland is seen playing the drums in a cage with lions surrounding him.) The film is an almost psychedelic, psychological, anthropological, and mythological cosmic adventure drawing from sources like Joseph Campbell and Carl Jung, similar to Peter Weir's "The Last Wave."

From Rogier's The Police Page (http://www.police.cybercomm.nl/~gugten/album32.htm):
Stewart Copeland: Bass, Computers/Sound Tracks, Drums, Guitar, Keyboards, Main
Performer, Percussion, Piano
Jeff Seitz: Producer
Stewart Copeland: Producer
Ray Lema: Vocals
Stewart Copeland: Vocals

"Copeland's second solo record is the soundtrack to an African safari video. Described on the sleeve as "a curious blend of musical snatches from Tanzania, Kenya, Burundi, Zaire, the Congo and Buckinghamshire," The Rhythmatist is variously a rock album with Africanisms layered on and a rock interpretation (or imitation) thereof. The blurry line between what is genuine and what Copeland has made of whole Anglo-American cloth is disturbing, to say the least, and there's obviously real African music where this dubious rock star contraption came from. Still, the invigorating record sounds lovely, especially thanks to his collaborator, Zairean vocalist Ray Lema". [from a review by Ira Robbins]

This is a great score. Had my copy of the cd signed by Mr. Copeland some years after the release when he finally toured to promote it. Great concert! Thanks for the share.
