    • 5. do the "funkro"
    • 6. watch out

    Very highly recommended super funky late sevnties Lagos disco-funk reissue from Soundway!

    Brimming funky basslines, groovy percussive breakdowns, swirling keyboards and screaming guitars! From the slow-motion disco of ‘Greetings’ to the stone cold groove of ‘Watch Out’ to the Rueben Wilson style funk of ‘Free My People’ Joni was soaking up the sounds of the times and blending them with the music of his roots.
