Juju Music – King Sunny Ade And His African Beats, 1982

,


đŸ”đŸŽ»đŸȘ•đŸ„đŸŒ In the early 80s, Island Records offered Sunny AdĂ© an international contract. AdĂ© was already a star in Nigeria, but now the world was opening up. Martin Meissonnier was called in to help, adding arrangements and synthesizers to AdĂ©’s compositions, which were superimposed on his Juju Music. In another development, Island asked AdĂ© to shorten the traditional long tracks, classics of Nigerian productions, to fit in with the demands of Western radio stations and nightclub habits. AdĂ© simply cut his compositions into shorter pieces, and that was it. The result, in 1982, was Juju Music, an instant worldwide success, a series of pieces with a delicate Yoruba groove, including the essential Ja Funmi, which Sunny AdĂ© covers at all her concerts.
