Samba / E Falabe Lewe Interesting facts to be found on the record: On the back of the record there is a descriptive text about King Sunny Adé that reads as follows: In Nigeria they call him "Chairman'King Sunny Adé. The prefix succinctly reflects Adé's role in Juju Music, the prime popular music of the Yoruba people. If JuJu Music is BIG in Nigeria, then Sunny Adé is undoubtedly the biggest. Even a casual look at the Nigerian charts over the last year will reveal a constant stream of number one hits for Sunny Adé. Indeed, it's unknown for a Sunny Adé album to sell less than 200,000 copies: and the man has released some 40 albums during the past decade. JuJu Music accounts for a massive part of the Nigerian record business. An estimated 12 million records, for instance, will be sold in 1982. Yet despite its mass acceptance, JuJu Music has never lost its special 'roots' quality. It is, simply, a tough modern dance music freely drawing on the traditions of the Yoruba, Nigeria's largest tribe. JuJu Music is rooted in the complex call-and-response between the talking drums and the singers. Although the music has been around since the Twenties, contemporary Juju Music really took shape with the introduction of Western instruments in the Fifties. Electric guitars, for instance, are now central. To Western ears the electric guitar is the dominant sound, its tunings and its harmonies lending a unique distinction. Other components include steel guitars and, more recently, synthesizers (which make an extraordinary blend with the traditional talking drums). Sunny Adé, with his band, The African Beats, has pioneered many of the innovations in JuJu Music, constantly embarking on new ideas and using the full resources of the modern recording studio. The African Beats, for example, was the frist band to use Hawaiian guitar, synthesizer and now, on this new album, even reggae-style Dub effects. Sunny Adé's new album, called simply JUJU MUSIC, was recorded in Lome, the capital of the West African state of Togo. It was mixed in London. The tunes featured on JUJU MUSIC are established favorites from Adé's bulging repertoire, perhaps the best introduction that can be made to the Chairman's music. "JuJu music is essentially party music..the fans out there want to dance and the rhythm is basically simple and, once you hook it up, it flows endlessly'' says Sunny. "It really is a very rich music".
