255: Africa Calling, vol.4

Hi.

Today a fresh part of my Africa Calling posts...

The first 3 (if you missed those by accident)

can be found here (1), here (2), and here (3).

I also did some sort of African Wah-Wah special once,

that you can digest here :-)

What can I say?

When I first heard one of Fela's albums

with that great Wall Of Horns, I was totally blown away!

Every other album I heard IS kinda more of the same,

but that's just how I like it!

His legacy continues by his sons Seun & Femi,

though for me pops was the real thing...

Or the time I saw King Sunny Ade live at North Sea Jazz

in the Hague, I danced off my pants to those Telecasters

scattering away inbetween the percussion and the sweet

african queens backing up the lines Synchro System :-)

Aaah, sweet memories!

Hope you folks enjoy today's post.
