Ahmed Sékou Touré became President after Guinea's independence in 1958, establishing a one-party dictatorship, with a closed, socialized economy & no tolerance for human rights, free expression, or political opposition. The country was named the People's Revolutionary Republic of Guinea. The newly independent Guinea was, however, concerned with the national musical heritage. The government set up the Syliphone label to record music, to help preserve & strengthen the culture of the new nation.
