The crowd gave mad love. Sang every line..I’m in chains. You’er in chains too…
Beautiful was sang with the skills of a lyrical cardiologist. Straight to our hearts, by- passing ears and brains. The emotive subject of mothers ( on the day following Mothering Sunday) really struck a chord. Asa sings just like an Assassin.
We sang..ntori omo….ti ya ni ile oko. It was so moving.
Next song was announced as the last. No one knows tomorrow. An injection of hope. My take on this was that no matter how bad today is, it can get better tomorrow, so why get depressed about it. (This show had the pharmacological properties of Prozac).
She took a bow and left the stage. Awon boys and girls no belleful o! Few made for the door but I hung around.
The she returned and gave use ‘Jara’. First Eye Adaba, then a song by Nina Simone, before doing Natural Mystic by Bob Marley.
Then we were treated to a freestyle medley of Fire on the mountain, Jailer and ..and… ..Mo ti gba gbe sha! (I cannot remember!) Babawilly was rocking too much to remember anything after that.
Big up to the band.
Janet –Vocals, Rodi on Bass/ Jeff on drums/ Nicola (a White man who i saw him singing a Yoruba chorus!) on guitar/ Didier on key boards.
We were all on a high after the show. Will most definitely go for ‘second round’, ‘third round’ and even ‘fourth round’ when new concert dates are announced.
Did I tell you I won tickets for the show by entering a competition on Gospel tonight with Muyiwa on Premier Radio? Sky TV 968
Well , I have told you now.
Finally big up to Cobham Asuquo who is credited some of the production work on this album. Na you bico!
