Sunny Adé and his African Beats – in London
Sunny Alade Records 1977

Sunny Adé, front, cd size

Tonight’s album is for the juju lovers among us. Sunny Adé, without
King in those days, has always been one of the most popular juju
artists in the field. I have no idea how many records he made through
the years but this is No. 16 here already. Being from 1977, this is one of
the older Sunny Adé’s here. The master mixed and produced it himself so
I suppose we can say it sounds exactly how he meant it to.

1 Emi agbadura

    Moos, I bought this album on eBay about six months ago but I have been afraid to play it because I only have a cheap turn table and I didn’t want to damage the vinyl… At last I can hear it!! Thank you a million for this and for all the treasures you post. Cole

    This is one of the best output from KSA. Its pure juju music at its very best. I recall that I memorised every line in this music and my dad punished me for doing so rather than memorising my books! Alhaji Ishola Dada is now of Blessed memory, while Alhaji Arisekola is still waxing stronger by the day. Such is life. Thank God am still alive to hear it again on this channel after 33 years! Many thanks to you guys for the post. God bless you.
