Active during the '70s, Fathili & The Yahoos came from Kenya. Their track on this split is soulful but raw, mid-tempo Afro-funk. These Wings had little to do with Sir Paul McCartney. No, this band hailed from Nigeria, specializing in bluesy disco, funk and soul moods fused with quirky synths and effects. The cut presented here is taken off the group's popular 1974 album 'Kissing You So Hard'.
