70's juju classic from Chief I.K. Dairo
About the artist.......
Born Isaiah Kehinde Dairo on January 6, 1931 in Offa, Kwara State, Nigeria; died on February 7, 1996, in Efon-Alaiye, near Akure, Nigeria.
With a musical career spanning most of the latter half of the twentieth century, Nigerian bandleader I. K. Dairo is known as the father of juju for his role in establishing that musical style, which eventually displaced West African highlife as Nigeria's national sound.
His songs, which reflected traditional Nigerian culture, appealed to a variety of listeners and his music featured instruments as diverse as the talking drums and the accordion.
Dairo recorded hundreds of records and toured around the world, making him African music's first truly international star.
