Chief Stephen Osita Osadebe – People’s Club Special, 10th Anniversary, Polygram 1982
With the Nigerian civil war, late sixties, Highlife practically
came to an end in Nigeria’s western region. Tribal discrimination
forced all Igbo musicians to move from Lagos as guitarband highlife
was more and more identified with the east as Igbo-Highlife.
One of the diehards, keeping guitar highlife alive, was Stephen Osita
osadebe who recorded more than 30 albums. Here’s one of them.

By the way, this dish starts a little crispy
but mellows out along the way.

This is a great record.
I have, actually, had it in my Rhapsody playlist for a while. They have most of Osita’s releases…which is saying something given the number that he recorded.
Thank you very much for this great record…
