.

His songs are cool and i've some of his songs on my mp3 player and some on my desktop.

i grew up listening to him i love :E dide,Alashe laiye,let them say,ibi won ri ,afai bawon ja
easy motion tourist,aye n reti eleya, ja funmi and so much more
check out this link for more of his songs:biochem.chem.nagoya-u.ac.jp/~endo/EAAde.html

i thought am the only sunny Ade freak here. My friends laugh at me for liking old school, but what can i do if thats what i enjoy.

"ja funmi" is a hit track on its own.

Does anyone knows of the old school track he sang at festac 77.

That was quite an old one.

How many KSA tracks can u sing by heart?.

I think i can sing at least 50 tracks!, without mincing words.

the newest album i know of his Divine shield. i listen to that every morning. and i cant stop.

cant sing any of his songs word for word by heart but i have some of his cds his songs are really cool

KSA is a great musician whose music seem ( i think am sure) to get plantinum in Nigeria.

That beat and rythm of his gives me great musical pleasure and also those yoruba licks, whenever my dad is around and he sings, we always do comeptition about the tracks and i sing it better than him.lol. he always get me because he knows some very very old track which he heard when he hasnt even met my mum. lol.
KSA, go on soun jooooooooo.

Sunny ti de, , alade ti de ariya, !

one word
love his music

i grew up on KSA too.
I could barely understand what he was saying cos ma yoruba was poor but men i love the tune and form'd my own words of it.
He is the only artist of his genre that i have his album on every system i work with.
KSA songs are filled with melody and content.

I'm a big fan of KSA. I can't go in a a day without listening to King Sunny Ade. I'm also a big fan of Orlando Owoh, Ebenezer Obey, Paul I.K. Dairo, Fela. I love their lyrics.

These are my favorites of his songs

Won ron mo loja
Esubiribiri Ebomi
E Bami Ra Baba
Baba Moke Pe O and many more

Infact i am planning to invite King Sunny Ade to play on my wedding day, hopefully he should still be around by then.

I normally ignore those that call me old school

@babwilms, "baba mo ke pe e o" is my track. if i am to do a statistics, i must have played that track over 5000 times. thats my best track. i listen and sing loud to it likeeeeeeeeee.

I wish my dad is interested in forums, would have challenged him on here, lol

Where in manchester do you reside? Coz i'm a student of Salford University in Manchester. I live in Clayton. I'll be back soon to paint town red.

baba moke pe o,
baba olu orun, olu lana, je ona mi ola peregede, je one mi o la
perege de la n ri oju oja, olu lana je ono mi ola
peregede la n r o ju osu.

My yoruba writing skill is not all that, i'll stop here

I luv his music. i was schooled by my father to wake up and sleep with sunny tunes in my head, Luv u Daddy, KSA 4 lyf.

@babwhilms, i live in openshaw, bus 219. i loe salford UNI as well, but may move to university of southampton in september. i am an open university student and i work full time.


Itakun to ni kerin ma wodo
toun terin ni o lo
baba mo kepe e oooo
baba oluorun olulana
je ona mi ola perege
je ona mi ol laaaa


i am miming it seriously here.

Yeah, I love KSA too. I also grew up with his music playing in my house every morning, my Dad loves his music too much! I can sing some of his albums from Side A to Side B I especially like his contemporary ones though.
e.g.

Aye n reti Eleya mi o
Won n reti eleya mi o lojojumo
Won ti ko ra won jo o lati pegan mi
Won ni mi o mo ju ile adura lojojumo
Won ri mi lona ile adura won a maa pegan mi

I love that so much( although most of it are kinda like incantations) but its one of my favourite licks. i wish i could use yoruba sign(do re and mi) on this and i will put it on.lol

Does anyone have KSA live play tape?

Yeah, i love his music, the content, the arrangement and he has good grips of his band !

I have his C.Ds though, i dont get to listen to them during the week but, i dont miss the sensation of listening to them every weekend !

That beautiful Album - ODU
Shikishi ishapa
Eba mi rababa
Easy motion tourist e.t.c

Cheers

@gbengaijot
i guess you can download it via p2p use are it safer for your system

@diyo, i dont even know the track tiltle. i completely forgot.

its okay
Just search KSA or sunny ade
good luck

Oh sorry Gbenga, I forgot to check back on this topic. I'm going to check all the CDs I have with me if Eja Osan track is there. I'll get back to you.

@IAH, thanks o jare, please check oooooo,
Am waiting with my heart crosse(not fingers).

King Sunny Ade's music is really cool.  Does anyone know of any concert clips online or anything because I missed his last World Tour in 2005.  I want to see at least a clip of the concerts.

gbengaijot , I heard about Divine Shield too. If u have any clips can u email it to me. I think it is only sold in Nigeria and I want to listen to it. Thank u.

@labiran, unfortunately i only have it on tape. If u live in the UK area, i can send u my copy or buy you one and get it posted.

gbengaijot, unfortunately I am in the U.S. But if u can think of a way to send it, that would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks!

Sunny Ade is a born entertainer and i love him to bits!I have been to watch his live performance a couple of times at Ikoyi Club.The guy is still doing his thing.
Recently,i saw a movie he stared that was made in the 80's or so LOPMOYAN or something like that,am not too sure.You need to see the way this guy was stepping!He's just too much.
I'm a huge fan.
