HOW COULD I (miss the Blue Spots)

Matt Yanchyshyn @ 11:12

Ex-roommate and Benn loxo listener, Ben, says:

“I know I’m late, but HOW COULD YOU miss I. K. Dairo (MBE) and his Blue Spots!?!?!

1. The guy has a seriously cool outfit.
2. He’s carrying an accordian.
3. In 1963 Queen Elizabeth awarded Dairo the MBE (Member of the British Empire).
4. And best of all… He helped to found “the Musical Copyright Society of Nigeria” – tougher jobs do not exist.

And Michael sends us a album cover rarity, along with a request for some Tropics and Snow, plus some Fireworks to go with the music.

   That is indeed a lovely accordion, but my vote is still split between Izzy’s vivid fuchsia trousers, Dr Owoh, and that bent-perspective painting of a man pushing his foot forward. (The top of the cover is scuffed but it seems to read “[something] Woh’.)

   Also partial to Ugbo And His Philosophers, but that’s purely because I like the name of the band.
