tirogo: disco maniac/we like to party

ltd repress. At the close of the 1970s, just a couple of years after the classic psych-funk of Float, Wilf Ekanem and crew trained their frazzled peepers on disco. The ensuing Aiye People LP is a stunner and a collector's legend. Here are two standouts from the album, magnificently revived with crisp sound, a top-notch pressing in a Voodoo Funk house-bag, with a two-by-one-foot poster. Afro-fried Kool and The Gang on a mission to "blow your soul on fire," featuring space-jazzbo Fred Fisher on trombone, the E Gang sisters on sassy backing vocals, Elvy's funky lead guitar, solo flute by Willie Chucks Edozie, and ill cosmo-synths and moog.
