Release Notes:
A CHILD OF AFROBEAT
Segun Damisa, leader of the group Afrobeat
Crusaders, worked with the real greats of Afrobeat,
including Fela, King Sunny Ade, Tony Allen and Femi
Kuti. After taking part in several world tours as a
percussionist, he decided to form his own group.
This album was recorded in Chris Birkett's studios.
Segun's friend Manu Dibango is heard playing alto
sax on one of the tracks. This is a pure product of
Afrobeat, combining jazz and soul with the rhythms
of juju and high life. Sadly, it is Segun's last
recording: he died suddenly during the production
of this marvellous album.
