Almon Memela is a South African guitarist who started recording music in 1959. His very first recording with The Travelling Singers in 1960 sold enough to ensure a steady flow of singles and albums. In 1963 he formed his group, Almon's Jazz Eight.

Here's his funky single from 1971, "The Mayfair Soul".
