Baba Mo Tunde features an exciting, driving beat, energetic lyrics, and a drive to dance. Several American musicians have contributed to this exciting, high-octane album on two CDs, especially recommended for international music shelves. The tracks are (Disc 1) "Baba Feran Mi" (18:55), "Oro Yi Bale" (15:47), "Emi Won N'ile yi O" (8:55), "Baba L'oun S'ohun Gbogbo" (11:28); (Disc 2) "Baba Mo Tunde" (31:02), "Baba Mo Tunde King Britt Remix" (15:17), and "Eyi Ma Dun To" (11:00). Also highly recommended from Rock Paper Scissors is "Homes", an album of "Beach Blanket Noir" by sold-out-show popular performers Jon and Roy. 10/14/10 >> go there
