THE FACES

" Wake up today "

Tabansi LP TRL 102, 1975

Made in Nigeria

 

You hardly listen to records coming from Africa that are such pasterpieces. If it was not for the tempo, mostly mid tempo, of the LP, it would stand along with the Geraldo Pino killer releases. The record is quite impressive to any funk enthusiast, with a very American sounding. But it remains deep & raw in its feeling like the FREEDOM FAMILY holy grail released on EMI Nigeria around the same period. Check the soundclips, we've put 13 for you to be able to listen to the numerous solos on these long tracks. Don't sleep on that one, it doesn't turn up twice !

 

Side A : 1- Together we live

              2- All I need from you

              3- Don't let nobody tell you

              4- Uyoyo

Side B : 1- Wake up today

               2- Shoki shoki shombolo

              3- My first love

             

CHECK SOUNDCLIPS !!!!

 

Sleeve is Fair, w/ some paper stuck on front cover & large peel off, several bites on upper corner w/ torn apart pieces. Sleeve has been partly repaired from the inside with brown tape. General dirt wear, discolouration on front, but no split on upper & bottom seams nor on spine.

Record plays a strong VG to VG + (an average VG++ w/ very light noise, but occasional pops, 5 clicks at the beginning of B1)
