MFB - Beware (Nigeria, 1979, EMI NIGERIA)

 

MFB was a a Nigerian band, composed of 3 members (as the same as BLO, one letter for each member of the band) :

Melvin Noks : Lead Vocals, Rhythm Guitar and Percussion

Franck Ikpefuran : Drums, Percussion and Vocals

Soca Benson : 

They released their one and only album, "Where Are Our People", on the famous EMI NIGERIA (NEMI) label, back in the end of the 1970's.

One of my former selections, "Take Me Back To Lagos", (link here) included one of the track of this record, "Boredom Pain", a nice Afro rock track.

For now, I decided to present you "Beware", the last track of the LP, an Afrobeat ballad.

MFB - Beware

Sincerely yours,

This week, we travel to Nigeria, this strange and continuously moving country, with a few tracks from several well known Afro Rock / Funk and Disco bands back in the 70's !
