Eji Oyewole – Charity Begins At Home
Eji Oyewole – Gele Odun (Oil Boom)
Eji Oyewole – Lagos Complex - Lagos Highways
Eji Oyewole – Unity In Africa (Kasowopo Kasekan)

1. Charity Begins At Home
2. Gele Odun (Oil Boom)
3. Lagos Complex - Lagos Highways
4. Unity In Africa (Kasowopo Kasekan)

Originally released on EMI Nigeria, and recorded at the tail end of the '70's, reveals, Eji’s version of highlife was even more distinctive than most, eschewing the usual emphasis on guitars for a brasher, horn-laden sound, seemingly influenced as much by American funk as it was jazz, and of course with the heavy percussive undertow central to most African music!
