about

Cult Trinidadian musician Oluko Imo's vital 1995 album, written in Lagos and recorded in New York. The album melds Afrobeat influences inspired by his time backing Fela Kuti at the Shrine with the calypso melodies of his Caribbean roots. Oluko's lyrics highlight global injustice and draw parallels between the post colonial experience in Trinidad and Nigeria, spreading a message of unity and positivity. Unavailable on any format since an extremely limited CD release in 1995.

The obsessive searching (in all the best ways) and crate digging pay off once again for the Analog Africa crew! This compilation is a veritable gold mine of crazy good funky riffs with horns aplenty. As with most AA offerings, the music appears to originate from various sources and time periods but the underlying quality of all the tracks is undeniable. Drop the needle and get ready to be enthralled!! blixa00
