artist from Nigeria, originally issued by the well known

fanatics. This unique album contains Black's own version of the
smasher 'Brand New Wayo', originally performed by the band
Mixed Grill for which Steve was the singer. On this album Steve
Black's voice is backed by polyrhythmic drum and percussion
patterns, lush horn arrangements and swinging bass lines.
