Great early work from King Sunny Ade – billed as "volume 12" – but a set that's way before his bigger 80s fame on Island Records! The title cut takes up all of side one – and side two features shorter tracks that include "Gbogbo Wa L'Ope", "Asiko Ni", and "Ori Olowo". LP, Vinyl record album

Yes!! It's as if the folks at Honest Jon's have unearthed a great lost Fela session, and for all intents and purposes, they have! Mr Big Mouth is a session written and led by trumpeter Tunde Williams, a mainstay in Fela's group for many years and one of the most distinctive voices in the horn section. The tracks were recorded in 1975, featuring a burning lineup of Afrika 70 that cut many seminal sides, and though they did see release in the mid 70s, this is one of the hardest to find recordings by the group. Both tracks roll along on the signature percolating Afrobeat groove, with rippling hornlines and call and response vocals elevating the proceedings to a new height: "Mr Big Mouth" and "The Beginning".
