[PrincessEnitan]

IK dairo was the music in town long before Ebenezer or Adeniyi. His bonfo was not just about travelling but a king of lade's mini dress today. Wonderful. And the onile gogoro type of head tie. Thank you Planetolusola for bringing us this reminiscence.

[planetolusola]

@PrincessEnitan you're welcome Pincess.

[jamhal73]

Music. This is music. Yes, real pure undiluted music. Evergreen. R.I.P music man. God will be happy having you around.

[tonyajayi]

I.K.Dairo was a legend of Africa. He lived a good life around Aborishade street, Lawanson,S/Lere. No one passes by without acknowledging that the KING of JUJU MUSIC lives there. Everybody loves him. May he rest-in-peace!!!.

[Outreachat]

@tonyajayi: You are right. I used to pass by his house, and his small church not far from it, in 1982. I also saw him inside the First Bank location in the same area where he used to carry out his transactions. Even now I always marvel at how truly significant people often tend to be so thoroughly ordinary and self-effacing: I.K.Dairo was talking to a bank staff almost like a man with no name in the street! Of course the banker must have known who he was! I.K. remains a gift to our music, I say!

[Kingoo4258]

What a master piece from IK Dairo the consumate juju maestro.A pacesetter whose mastery of his trade brought world wide recognition to his brand of music.He was not only a musician but also a true African.IK stood heads and shoulders above his contemporaries no wonder he was awaded MBE .Salome is just one of his many successful music.He was Gods gift to the juju music industry.

[bluesnow404x1]

Just whao! How do you compare this music to so call present day noises. Just a masterpiece of accordion, talking drums and first class raps. Thanks to whoever posted this. You made my day. This is my grandma's favourite music and God bless her soul. Whao.

[princessadekunbi1]

Memory of my parents, uncles and aunties on christmas day and new year's day is something that I cherish whenever I hear all the good oldies. God bless planetolusola

[planetolusola]

Thanks Princess.

[miaghana]

This what you call music, even thou I was young when my dad play this music, It has left a great memory in my life. Good music last forever. A++++

[shehuemekamajeks]

Dairo's is not just his musical talent. His eclectic work in the Aladura movement makes him an intellectual giant. If Dairo was 'Eurowhite', many research students would study him and many a Ph.D would be written around his work. Dairo was one of the few Africans who saw through the deception/indoctrination of 'Eurowhite' Christianity as it was sold to the colonised Africa. Alas, when his generation finally goes, we will all be left with mediocrity and cheap immitation of burger music culture.

[gbengakolawole]

You cant just compare. This is what music is, love it

[adora80]

he is the father of paul play dairo.

[9japatriot]

[Kingoo4258]

Paul Play Dairo happens to be one of his biological children.

[gvicman]

I.K.DAIRO IS UNIQUE WITH HIS ACORDION IN THE JUJU MUZIK,I HOPE HIS MUZIK WILL STILL LIVE FOR LONG BECAUSE THEY ARE ALL CLASSICS.

Thnx for the post though,I'm listening to this version for the first time!

[OutreachT]

The "Salome" version of 1992 was just a re-made, watered-down version of the original, waxed in the early sixties, anywhere between '62 and '67. The original is a much better and tighter version, naturally.
