Congas, the Sakara Frame Drum €? and An Attitude Straight Off the Street. Wasiu Ayinde Had Nearly Twenty Years' Worth of National Fame Under His Floor Length Robes (And Occasional Zebra-Striped Jumpsuits) When He Played His First Ever Womad Festival That Same Year. Booked In For A Session At Real World Recording Week Shortly Afterwards, the Artist and His 16-Piece Band Were Inadvertently Delayed and Pulled In To Real World Studios In Box, Wiltshire Eight Hours Late. the Recording Went Ahead Regardless. Against the Clock. On-the-Fly. With A Small Live Audience In Party Mode and Microphones Placed About the Floor, Wasiu Ayinde and His Crew Rode the Adrenalin, Summoning A Set That Moved From Trance-Like Call-and-Response and Vibrant Afropop Ballads To Those Aforementioned Megahits, All of It Soaked In Groove and Feeling. A Kingly Feat, That Seems Even More Majestic Now. Recorded At Real World Studios In 1995, This Cd/Lp Reissue Features Brand New Cover Art. First Time On Vinyl.
