Mona Finnih - I Love Myself / People Of The World - 12" Vinyl

Boogie-down cosmic funk from late-'70s Nigeria. Breaking through with The Sunflowers in Nigeria's late-'60s soul explosion, Mona later moved to the U.S. There she was active in the new jazz scene, before returning home towards the end of the '70s, and forming The Sensationals with guitarist Jimi Lee Adams. An unsung pioneer, Mona was Nigeria's first female pop bandleader. Adams packs his inner Hendrix off to Funky Town and Mona runs it all down with an irresistible West African tilt. Fifth in the series: remastered at Abbey Road, cut at Dubplates & Mastering, pressed at Pallas; and presented with a 24"x12" full-color poster.
