Bola Johnson-Man No Die-Nigerian grooves Afro funk-2CD
Bola Johnson ¿ Man No Die ...
NEW DOUBLE CD
Vampi Soul (Spain), Late 60s/Early 70s ¿ Condition: New Copy
The first ever compilation of stellar Nigerian grooves from Bola Johnson ¿ a wonderful singer with a great ear for melodies, and an uncommon stylistic range ¿ great stuff that rolls from highlife tunes with shimming guitars and charismatic vocals, to juju inflected numbers, soulful Afro Funk, more spiritually resonant numbers and rootsier cuts.
Common threads connect it all masterfully, though, and there's an particularly an insistent approach to melody that's straight up irresistible.
22 tracks on 2CDs in a nice package from Vampi Soul: "Somebody Find Me Trouble", "Oh My Baby Josephine", "Obiriki Aye N Yilo", "Koto Ye O", "Buroda Mase", "Kilode", "Mimo Mimo Loluwo", "Lagos Special", :Meme Latori", "Nigeria Drive On The Right", "Pappa Rebecca Special 1 (She's A Woman)" and more.
