The album "Which Way, Africa?" is an outstanding example of the Nigerian music scene of the 1970s. Tunji Oyelana, working alongside his band The Benders and featuring the legendary Lijadu Sisters, created a tapestry where highlife, afro-funk, and elements of traditional Yoruba music intertwine. The album's lyrics are imbued with philosophical reflections on the developmental path of the African continent and social issues of the time. The music features a rich brass section, hypnotic percussion, and characteristic vocal interaction, where Oyelana's smooth voice is complemented by the harmonies of the Lijadu Sisters. This reissue by Soundway Records brings back rare recordings that were difficult to access outside Nigeria for decades.
