The memorable melodies, rolling percussion and wildly inventive licks of Sir Victor Uwaifo left an indelible impression on West African Highlife music. The groove-obsessed composer, frontman and guitar whiz was a major creative force during the 1960s and 1970s, and responsible for a bona fire cultural moment; mega-hit "Joromi" with his trusty Melody Maestros. As captured on this collection, Uwaifo's knack for playing with genre conventions combined traditional rhythms with modern instruments, incorporating rock, soul and other elements into a cohesive and endlessly danceable whole.
