Title: An album that will start a love affair w/african music
Review: This album (which I first heard in 1989) started me on what will certainly remain a lifelong love affair with African music. Ja Funmi and Samba are two amazing standouts on a collection that stands the test of time. If you are surfing the web and considering a first "world-beat" purchase, BUY THIS DISC! The artistry of Ade's ensemble is as joyful, tragic and complex as any Western symphony...I have had the luck to see this man and his group three times, each time a sublime experience...only one caution: if you buy this- watch your wallet: you'll end up spending all your money on more African music, 'cuz you'll be hooked!
