RELEASE DATE

PMG present a reissue of
Jimi Lee/Mona Finnih & The Sensationals
's
A Stroll In The Moonlight
, originally released in 1980. "He [Jimi Lee] was Nigerian guitar God, famous for his incendiary lead breaks with
Aktion
and
Monomono
. She [Mona Finnih] was one of Nigeria's first female band leaders who went off to the US and became a big deal in the new jazz scene there. It should be no surprise then that when Jimi Lee and Monah Finnih got together in 1980 for
A Stroll In The Moonlight
, an Afro jazz cosmic funk masterpiece was born. Intricately arranged, beautifully produced and showcasing musicianship of the highest order,
A Stroll In The Moonlight
was a notch above anything else that was coming out of Nigeria at the time. 'I Love Myself' is the perfect amalgam of a tight, horn-driven Lagos groove with an American new jazz sheen. 'People Of The World' is pure Afro funk, brightened by Jimi Lee's sunny, twangy guitar. 'Son Of A Man' brings reggae to the table and 'Iya Alakara' is a
Lijadu Sisters
style cosmic paean to beefcakes and plantains. Taking a stroll with Nigerian music's oddest couple is a slinky, funky affair that comes highly recommended, but be warned: You'll work up a sweat." --
