Oby Onyioha - Break it - in demand afro boogie!
Polygram records / Sunny Alade records (Nigeria) SALPS43
If there was an Oby Onyioha fanclub then this would definitely be their holy grail - and to other fans of 1980's afro boogie / disco / electro soul, this is also an item that is definitely worth checking out. Oby's other lp 'I want to feel your love' shows up on ebay every now and then, fetching 300 U$ and up. But this is her other lp, released on another label, with a slightly different feel and also most in demand - previously went for 700 U$.
I once bought this because it is the only African album I know of that was influenced by the 80's electro/breakdance rage. But the album is much more eclectic with some boogie and even a track that carries some reggae in it. Two amazing dancefloor tracks: 'Nigeria's gonna make it' and 'Party party', while she goes all-out electro on 'Break it'.
Executive producer is King Sunny Ade! For additional fun, the sleeve has the lyrics written out and mrs Onyioha posing Jane Fonda style...
Nice clean copy! Listen to some snippets recorded from the actual vinyl:
