King Sunny Ade - Mo Ti Mo

1983
originally recorded in1974 in ade's first self released record, the song is a plea to his fans, "my people gather round me, this journey i am on, is it carrying me forward or backward?"
the original chorus in 1974 was mio mo meaning, "i dont know." when the song was re-released for island records on the cusp of international success, the chorus was changed to mo ti mo which means, "now i know."

King Sunny Ade performs this song in Robert Altman's 1985 teenage romp "O.C. & Stiggs." Such a beautiful scene.
