Enough about the back story! Interesting, but I think this release needs to get the praise it seriously deserves. Top-shelf Nigerian soul, funk and disco form the 1970s on display here. Tracking down each of these tracks on your own would take a LOT of time and money. There is not a single dud on this compilation. Not a single filler track! Some serious dance floor burners on here, and a few laid back cuts too. Secondary to the music but also important is the context: recently independent Nigeria in the global Black is Beautiful era....WOW

Auau

Everbody parties.

The inclusion of the Doris Ebong track "Boogie Trip" on the CD version of the Kon & Amir Off Track Vol. III compilation triggered an accusation of bootlegging against BBE by Frank Gossner who claims he included it in his compilation Lagos Disco Inferno after obtaining exclusive licensing rights from Tony Essien, the producer and co-author of the track. http://www.soulstrut.com/index.php/forums/viewthread/64091/

The hilarious but painfully long thread, which also was the reason the track in question wasn't included in the vinyl version of the BBE release, has since been moved and can now be found here: https://community.soulstrut.com/discussion/56105/bbe-british-bootlegging-enterprises

Na dann: Frohe Weihnachten, Frank.

Thanks for the link, Yemsky. Still a good laugh. Now, several years later, I've just released a whole series of follow-up 12"s while BBE have retired their Off-Track compilations and everybody involved is still laughing about their bogus "contract" with this Digger Elias scam artist.
