The Nigerian composer and organist FelaSowande (1905-1987) is featured at AfriClassical.com. On November 26, 2012 AfriClassical posted: FelaSowande Plays 3 Popular Tunes on Hammond Organ in .mp3 Files atAfriClassical.com. One song, SierraSue,includes vocal accompaniment by a male singer whose identity isunknown to us.
Today Alan Ashton of www.organradio.com writes:
Hello Bill,Thank you so much for all that free publicity!. Most kind and appreciated.Might I make a suggestion in respect of the vocal item and that is to throw open for discussion on the possibility that the vocalist might even be Fela himself. I'm sure you would agree that whoever it is, has an unusual accent, and if it was anyone OTHER than him, then my feeling is that person would have been credited on the label.
I will keep my eyes open for any other compilation CDs that might appear with other tracks of him. Alan.
As suggested by Alan Ashton, AfriClassical invites the opinions of readers:
Is Fela Sowande the vocalist on the .mp3 organ track 'Sierra Sue'?
