on side 2, the cover & labels indicate 7 tracks, but there are 8 tracks on both sides of the vinyl -- i have named the tracks on side B as B1-B8 (so as to not misname them, as i don't know which track is the unnamed one!) - any help naming them correctly & identifying the unknown track would of course be appreciated
;)

I'll take a quick stab at SideB:
B1: is obviously "Darling don't say no"
B2: "Omo Laso" is repeated in the chorus
B5: I hear the word "Ominira" at 1:04
B6: "Fedse" is the first word sung
B7: I think it's "YB Club" (sleeve notes say it's an instrumental).

From there I'm not too sure. From the sequence I think B8 is "Late JK Randle", and the band sounds the same as the one playing A8.

So that leaves B3 & B4, one of which must be Sebotimo. Vakari doesn't play on any other track on the album so I can't match it that way.

Where's Dr. Frank??

Hi,
Listening to the songs, the missing song is Track B4 - titled 'Aduke' or 'Aduke Omo Pupa'. However, I can't tell who the singer is (definitely not Ayinde Bakare though). The tracks listed B4-B7 are in fact B5-B8.

The corrected tracklist is as follows:
Side A:
A1. Ayinde Bakare and his Meranda Band - Iwa Lewa
A2. Ambrose Campbell and the West African Rhythm Brothers - Calabao
A3. Nat Atkins and his Crazy Bees - Somojele
A4. Ambrose Campbell and the West African Rhythm Brothers - Eroya
A5. Brewster Hughes and the Nigerian Union Rhythm Group - Ojitibi
A6. Tommy Odueso's Akesan Highlifers - Ibadan Ni Pade
A7. Brewster Hughes and the Nigerian Union Rhythm Group - Ojikolumbo
A8. Ayinde Bakare and his Meranda Band - Adura Fun Awon Aboyun

Side B:
B1. Nat Atkins and his Crazy Bees - Darling Don't Say No
B2. Ambrose Campbell and the West African Rhythm Brothers - Omo Laso
B3. Ayinde Bakare and his Meranda Band - Sebotimo
B4. Aduke
B5. Ambrose Campbell and the West African Rhythm Brothers - Ominira
B6. Rans Boi’s Ghana Highlife Band - Fedse
B7. Ambrose Campbell and the West African Rhythm Brothers - Y.B. Club (instrumental)
B8. Ayinde Bakare and his Meranda Band - The Late J.K. Randle

Thanks very much for this. Helps fill in some long-standing gaps, from a much under-appreciated period of West African music in the UK. And lovely music, too, of course!

the map is a little funny. is it pre-berlin conference borders? congo is kind of big and has eliminated kenya amongst others. namibia and cameroun has aslo grown and eaten up some of its neighbours.

B4. Aduke is by Nat Akins & His Crazy Bees. Listen to B4 Aduke (the missing label) and A3. Somojele; the music in them are the same only the lyrics are different. Your collections are highly appreciated. Keep up the good work.
