Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Rare West African funk.......2003-05-28

Early '70s Nigerian funk, with a heavy, heavy debt to James Brown's Bootsy-era jams. This disc collects music from two incarnations of Bucknor's band, the first being the Assembly, and the second, the more politically inclined Revolution. Like Fela Kuti, Bucknor saw music as a way to attract people to politics (and politics as a way to attract people to music), and many songs have an interesting socially conscious component. Overall, this sounds pretty static, with one song after another "staying on the one," in the James Brown style, but it's still a pretty cool document of a little-known chapter in African pop history.

5 out of 5 stars beautiful lagos afrobeat.......2002-07-25

subtler than fela, more james brown to fela's sly stone. very pleasing, very sophisticated.
