Sunshine (with download)
LP (Item 602287) Knitting Factory, 1978 — Condition: New Copy
A sweet step forward for the Lijadu Sisters – a record that's filled with a lot more keyboards than before, used in a way that creates this great spacey feeling in their sound! There's still some nice groovers here, but there's also some wicked tunes that have this laidback vibe that's mighty great – very different than the usual Afro Funk styles of the time – and almost this trippy kind of approach that feels like Shuggie Otis recording in Lagos – albeit with the unique twin-vocal leads of the Sisters! Biddy Wright handles all the cool keys – and also helped arrange and produce the record too – and titles include "Set Me Free", "Promise", "Reincarnation", "Turbulent Waters", "Sunshine", and "Come & Dance". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
