This is a recording of both albums by BLO (Chapter One & Phase 2) that is a hybrid between the bands Nigerian roots and psychedelic rock. From what I gather, members from BLO were listening to The Isley Brothers and Grand Funk Railroad when they decided to take their native Nigerian sound and blend it with the sounds of the american bands they were listening to at the time. Well, this new hybrid of sound was an instantaneous success, with fans cheering for more. With hypnotic bass lines, chanting vocals and funky guitar, BLO made a sound that was new and exciting, making them instant stars during the ever popular music scene in Nigeria during the 1970's.
