03/03/1992 | Happy Release Day 1992 | David Byrne - Uh-Oh Luaka Bop | Warner Bros. Records #davidbyrne #luakabop #warnerbrosrecords @davidbyrneofficial @luakabop @warnerbrosde Allmusic: „Though informed by his various investigations into world music, the album was a natural successor to the Talking Heads records, relying on involved percussion tracks topped by Byrne's quirky singing and lyrics.“ The Guardian: „The most Talking-Heads-esque of Byrne’s solo albums, albeit with a Latin-American influence, Uh-Oh vanished unheralded at the height of grunge.“ Entertainment Weekly: „Not every song on Uh-Oh is so embracing, or so goofy, but nearly all of them build an alluring tension: The funnier ones carry a hint of dread, and the more serious ones are tempered by waggish wit.h“ https://www.instagram.com/p/CapkG7jMwzy/?utm_medium=tumblr

A collaboration between an electronic producer, a saxophonist, and a symphony. It’s Pharoah Sanders who 100% makes this the masterpiece it is 🎶🙏🏻 #floatingpoints #pharoahsanders #thelondonsymphonyorchestra #promises #luakabop #electronic #jazz #modernclassical #vinyl #vinylcollection #recordcollection #vinyladdict #vinylcollector #vinyljunkie #vinylporn #nowspinning #lp https://www.instagram.com/p/CVSIZMnA0-D/?utm_medium=tumblr

According to the Luaka Bop record label, Onyeabor "self-released eight albums between 1977 and 1985 and then became a born-again Christian, refusing to ever speak about himself or his music again." The label reported that through attempting to speak with Onyeabor himself, and by talking to people who seem to have firsthand knowledge, it tried to construct an accurate biography of him for 18 months, without success. “I'm a poor man A very poor man I've got no money And I've got no home But I've got love I know I've got real love I've got love And I'm alright” All biography you need you have in those eight albums Luaka Bop !
