RELEASE DATE

PMG present a reissue of
Goddy Oku
's
One More Chance
, originally released in 1984. "Goddy Oku was the eastern Nigerian music scene's 'Mr Fixit'. Need a new guitar? He'd make you one. Couldn't afford a fancy new effects pedal? Give him a couple of days and he'd knock up something that would do the job. Oh, and he was also a red-hot guitarist with
The Hygrades
, one of the heaviest bands to come out of the east. When music started getting more electronic in the late '70s and '80s, Goddy was there, tinkering and experimenting. He built Godiac studios in Enugu, where fellow wonk,
William Onyeabor
recorded
Crashes In Love
(1982). Between producing countless albums, he used his DIY skills and studio acumen to record
One More Chance
. 'Don't Ask Me' is the bomb, a dancefloor chugger that sets the tone of the album with cheeky vocal interplay between Goddy and his backing singers,
Alice Okaro
and
Sandra Okagbue
. They're soon asking for forgiveness on 'One More Chance' and enjoying the fruits of reconciliation of the chirpy 'Everything'.
One More Chance
is a wonky, synth-driven masterpiece that is funky and quaint in equal measures. It will bring a smile to your face and an irresistible urge to dance to your feet." --
Peter Moore
.
