Cardinal Rex Lawson & his Majors Band of Nigeria -Greatest Hits, Polygram / Polydor
First LP by this artist on this page. We had one track on
the collector ‘African Music’ some time ago but that’s it.
About time to give Rex Lawson some deserved attention.
12 short tracks of which 7 to 12 can be a bit false. B-side
wasn’t centered right unfortunately. Still, I think it’s worth
a couple of spins, I enjoyed it a lot again while recording.
Mellow kind of Nigerian highlife, listen.

It’s time to say thank you for this year (if you want to with my blog and a few more records there)!
Sad news from Nigeria these days. Let’s hope for a better 2011.

Good job Moos. Cardinal Rex Lawson was a gem to Nigeria, who died at a young age. On Dec. 16, 2010 we lost another gem. Dr. Sikiru Ayinde Barrister passed away in a london hospital from illness. Moos, can you post one of his albums in honor of him soon? Thanks

Moos, I hope my last comment didn’t provoke you to post albums with great horn sections. The sax on Celestine’s album is as smooth as silky velvet. Matches his voice nicely.
Here the trumpet is wonderful. Big thanks!
