Eddy Okonta And The Aces - Philips In Nigeria
Review by Sandra Hendricks
Philips In Nigeria by Eddy Okonta And The Aces is an album that captures the essence of Nigerian music in the 1970s. The album features a collection of highlife and Afrobeat tracks that showcase the talents of Eddy Okonta and his band.
The album opens with the upbeat and catchy track "Eziegbe," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The song features a groovy bassline and lively horns that will get listeners dancing along. Other standout tracks include "Nwa Ada Di Mma," which features soulful vocals and a beautiful guitar solo, and "Ije Udo," a mellow and reflective song that showcases the band's versatility.
One of the strengths of this album is the way it incorporates different elements of Nigerian music. The band seamlessly blends highlife, Afrobeat, and other styles to create a unique sound that is both nostalgic and fresh.
