Some time back I met with two Belgians, they frequent
several African countries to find special lp’s. On their last
visit they brought back some rare stuff. Take this juju lp
by Thony Adex, untill now I had never heard of him.
I love them sweeping broomsounds in the beginning
of the album. Get it & spread it..
tracks;
1 Baba wa orun
– Fana han mi
– Atakoro wo nu ado
– Omo onife
2 A tun gbede
– Orere ila
– Omo awo re o
Nice Juju! Thanks so much.-john
there is a record on the makossa label it's title is sunny ade judgement special which has a long guitar solo which sounds like s a <br />he was with a group called Alausati but formed the sedico systemm band in '74.<br />thanks for all the work you've done Moos.
There were actually two LPs on the Makossa label. Sunny Ade Judgement Special was Volume 1, but there was a Volume 2 called Juju Funk Explosion.
Hello greetings from Mexico is a very good blog of music but the discs are in mediafire and were deleted can back up the server you drive at this time
Awesome album, as is Juju Funk Explosion (I have on cassette, from the eighties). It's two long tracks – the guitars and voices come and go, but the drums never stop, so the song divisions are arbitrary.
[…] It is a coincidence, I received a request from Tony, asking for King Sunny Ade because today is his 67th birthday. I checked the KSA lp’s I haven’t posted yet but the only three left unposted are not my favourites. When an lp has god and jesus titles I get irritated and am unable to post. It just so happens I have this album by Thony Adex with or about King Sunny Ade. You can see his picture on the frontsleeve and his name is in the titles as well. I have no idea about the link, if King Sunny is performing here or if it’s all about him, if any one can tell us what the link is, would be very much appreciated. So Tony, an album by Thony Adex, hope you enjoy it anyway.. another Thony Adex, here […]
