TUNDE NIGHTINGALE - Na-Poor-A-Poor

[@Bizz2k]

The day juju music tracks went on and on and on.....lol. This music reminds me of my childhood in Lagos. My aunt and uncle so loved Tunde Nightingale music and they would play it on blast from their sound system on weekends or when are on our way with them to 'Owanbe' parties. I couldn't understand much of what he sang (We were from the UK) but his voice and high life juju was distinctive from the others. Not only that, he played at a great aunts funeral party in a hall in Lagos. We kids just looked on and sourced for our own money spray. Most of those adults that introduced us to this type of music are all gone beyond too. Hope Tunde Nightingale is playing for them in yonder.

My father's music in those days. May his gentle soul rest in perfect peace

[@abiodunfatoki8197]

Tunde Nightingale lived ahead of his time. A highly gifted musician!!!.

[@MrChrisAni]

When I dream of Lagos this is the song I hear even after decades of living in the United States. An angelic voice that is matchless. A talented guitarist to boot!

[@kolawolebabatunde8712]

You love yoruba music right

[@abbeyafolabi5329]

I'm on your side my brother. I'm an old school guy.

[@olusolabalogun2583]

It was an unparalleled honor to see this icon of juju music play a few times in the 70s. Nightingale lives on.... Rest well.

[@kunlefunmius]

I always felt the voice belonged to one small boy! What a sonorous lovely voice. NTA Ibadan still has some of his live performances.

[@adetolaokiallahakbaralhamd3092]

I love his music so much he played on my wedding day 1978

[@easybayoo]

May God heal our land. Nigeria is not Nigeria again. Yoruba self, politicians has destroyed the love among us. Yoruba people in government don't reminiscence their origin anymore, Acting according to Fulanic decision.

[@funmmyteey]

May the soul of Late Tunde Nightingale continue to rest in Perfect Peace. How I wish his name could be immortalised. Appreciation goes to the kind hearted person that uploaded these beautiful records. God bless. Thanks for sharing.

His name is already immortalized in his works, his love, messages for us to learn from, and most importantly in our hearts. Take solace, he remains unbeatable and unforgettable. The great Nightingale. Remember his Odijo Ta ba pade lawijo awon Oba. I love it . The whole LP . I can't stop listening to it. Side A and B. And other fine works too. Whenever l am melancholic or blue l turn it on to soothe my nerves and relaxation.

[@taiwofadumila707]

Tunde Nightingale's style must have drawn inspiration from "rara" poetic renditions which he successfully integrated into emerging highlife music style... Always refreshing and relaxing.

[@omotola73]

As an up and coming folk singer I v had to study Sir Tunde Nightingale's music so as to study understand the fundamentals of palmwine music and how it may have influenced folk sounds.

[@chrisaina2516]

Is there any one playing his kind of music really looking for pls help

[@ogabinoah769]

I am really happy listening to this kind of music , unlike what the industry has become lately. May the good lord bless and help us in this part of the world. Nigeria has become something else,no respect for the elders,no love amongst the people, no unity e.t.c . May God heal our land. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@nodofin]

Thank you for this owambe

[@Tunjij]

Pure music

[@ademolaaofolajuwonlo1044z]

"Na poor I poor, behold I no craze". That is a true Nigerian spirit. Sunny Ade and Dele Abiodun copied most of Tunde Nightingale's songs when they started their music. Owambe is Tunde Nightingale. Sunny Ade is Ariya o l'opin. Ebenezer Obey is Miliki.

[@ladipoharper7231]

Music for the mature mind gham.
