First official reissue of the extremely rare full-length album by Lagos-based bandleader Shina Williams.
The record was born in 1979 when Shina put Biddy Wright, Fred Fisher, Saliu Alabi, Prince Bola, Tutu Shoronmu, Tunde Williams and several other decorated Nigerian musicians - who played with the likes of Fela Kuti, SJOB Movement, Sonny Okoson, King Bucknor amongst others - together to record. The result is 'African Dances', a timeless fusion of afrobeat, electronics, boogie and disco.
African Dances includes his most well-known song, 'Agboju Logun', that Williams knew was ground breaking. This album version is a different mix to the two-track 12" that came out under on Earthworks, Rough Trade in 1984.
Replica original artwork. Licensed direct from Shina Williams.

A1. Cunny Jam Wayo
