News: RPM reissues the first two BLO albums from Nigeria
Apparently December, 2009 is the time to reissue Nigerian psych albums. Earlier we announced the Academy reissue of Ofege. Now comes word that RPM, another of the many Cherry Red labels (Esoteric being the main one we follow), has reissued the first two albums by BLO (Berkeley Laolu Odumosu).
Here's what we said about the debut album:
"BLO (Berkeley Laolu Odumosu) - Chapter One (Nigeria) 1973 private. One of the more famous underground psych albums from Sub-Saharan Africa. Does contain a US psych funk vibe and isn't too far from the works of Fela Kuti, minus the deeper grooves. Shadoks has already done the LP reissue, so expect a CD sometime in the next couple of years."
Well obviously it appears Shadoks was only interested in the LP issue, or only had to rights to that format.
Should we expect an announcement for the Question Mark (Kenya) album next?
Thanks to Laser Ken for the heads up!
