专辑介绍
Babatunde Olatunji was a virtuoso drummer who became a sensation in the 60s with his albums of traditional Nigerian drumming and chanting. If Olatunji debuted in todays environment, he would be subjected to much tougher scrutiny and evaluation regarding authenticity than he received in the 60s. His heralded albums, particularly Drums of Passion, werent quite the innovative event some claimed. They were fine LPs, but also contained a heavy dose of show business and sanitized playing that would be duly noted today, particuarly in the specialist press. Still, his albums reportedly were very influential on John Coltrane. They were among the few international releases to not just make the charts, but remain on them for years. Olatunji didnt make many albums in his prime. From 1964 until 1967 he had four hit LPs. Hed originally come to America in the early 60s to study medicine. Olatunji formed a band of African expatriates mainly as an exercise and way to help each other avoid being homesick. The ensemble scored a hit record and he became a musician. The popularity of Drums Of Passion and More Drums Of Passion predated the 60s black nationalist movement and Afrocentricity of the 80s and 90s. They also had some impact in jazz circles, though they werent as significant as the Afro-Latin revolution initiated by Mario Bauza, Machito and Chano Pozo. Olatunji resurfaced in the late 80s on the Blue Heron label with The Beat Of My Drum, a release featuring a 17-piece band that included Carlos Santana and Airto Moreira. He subsequently recorded more sessions for Rykodisc, including a digital remix of Drums of Passion. In 1997, He recorded and released Love Drum Talk for the Telarc label. In April of 2003, Babatunde Olatunji passed away after a lengthy struggle with diabetes.
