From Toshiya Endo's Ali Chukwuma discography:

"Also known as "Ali Chukumah,""Ali Chuks" and "Ali Chukus." Almost completely unknown outside of Nigeria, this singer hails from Aboh, Oshimili LGA in Anambra State. He moved to nearby Atani at an early age following the death of his father. It is here that he made the acquaintance of fellow town resident Chief Stephen Osita Osadebe and joined his Nigeria Sound Makers Band in the late 1960s. He left in 1975 to form his own Peace Makers Dance Band, which released a number of rootsy highlife LPs in the 1970s and eighties.

Some have speculated that Ali Chukwuma is a Muslim. This is not true. Rather he takes the name "Ali" from his idol Ali Baba, a famous African wrestler of the sixties and seventies.

Ali Chukwuma passed away of liver failure in the mid 1980s, but his work is still greatly appreciated by highlife music lovers everywhere." - John Beadle http://endolab.jp/endo/EAChukwuma.html

side two: Eje-Anabu-Isi

"Ogeli Sili Obi"



NimRedd said - " The evergreeness of this song stems from the brutal honesty of its simple but universal story. It expresses the righteous rage of a man -- or woman - who mourns the fact that s/he can't control fate but is still determined to tell a story of loss (of life? of love?) to whom (God? Fate?) ; this song interprets the contradtion in human existence: we seek love & so risk painful loss of affection; we live & will one day mourn loved ones; sex invites pleasure, peace, passion, punt & ultimately pain"

Eyetubeful said...  I love Ali Chukwuma's music! I got to know him and his Amalisekise band when he lived in Nnewi in the late 70s. His brother and band manager Christopher became a good friend to me. I used attend the band rehearsals at the Palmer Hotel. I wonder if his son mentioned is Ifeanyi who was a bomboy then.   He was a good natured man who didn't take life too seriously. I miss him. He used to tease me and call me "small boy".
