This is Sunny Ade gently rebuking the military of their harakiri method of doing things in Nigeria.

He is saying ..stop scraring us and let peace reign. this is most political Sunny Ade apolitical can get.

[sawe707]

God will forever bless you Sunny Ade and your kinds.

Any dress will fit and be unique on Micheal Jackson and This man.

When MJ died I started to pray for Sunny Ade. What is festive moods and seasons without Sunny Ade .

They used to say that' if he Knocked tins of milk together to wax a record people wil

buy it. Iam one of those fan.

And very funny I'm yet to see him face to face exceppt on TV.Tell him to call me at 009-1-336-295-3061. I deserve it.

But my all time #1 Sunny Ade hit is Afefeyeye.

'Wole Afuye-USA

This album ranks alongside his "Syncro System" album. When King Sunny Ade released this record in 1979 he went on from there to dominate the african music scene with his unique style of African Rythm and soul.

@Outreachat: Phonodisk were the distributors of KSA recordings. Only for a short time though.

[Outreachat]

Thanks so much for this. September 1979, just before the inception of the Nigerian Second Republic, released at the same time as Fela's STB: Sorrows, Tears and Blood. This record was the very first release from the now-defunct Haruna Ishola's Phonodisk label, whose main producer was Odion Iruoje. The label would release Kris Okotie's I Need Someone, what I once called Nigeria's equivalent of MJ's Off the Wall, in 1980. The chorus line now sounds quite slipshod to me but, oh time, what the heck!
