Description

The Wings (Original Wings International) - Tribute to Spud Nathan
NEMI 0192 LP Kenya 1976?

First album by this Nigerian soul/funk/psych rock band after their lead singer died in 1974. Apparently the group split up and this part, the Original Wings International, released this album to much critical acclaim.
Interestingly this pressing is all the way from Kenya (East Africa), where the Wings also released a 7-inch on Suzumi, the same label that also released two singles by Geraldo Pindo.

This album is a great work which effortlessly mixes psychedelic soul, funk, rock and a little afrobeat. A bit in the vein of Monomono, Apostles, the Doves etc. This copy sounds good except for a big mark on the first two tracks on side A which makes it hard to listen to those 2. Luckily that leaves you with 8 tracks to enjoy.
