Manford Best - I've Been Loving You LP
SKU: PMG083LP OverviewDescription:
“I’ve Been Loving You” sees Manford Best finally laying the ghosts
of The Wings to rest and emerge as a serious player in the
glittering new world of Afro boogie. Recorded in London, with
Nigerian super producer, Jake Sollo, at the desk, it is a highly
polished collection of disco classics, guaranteed to fill any dance
floor in the world. The title track gets the party started with an
irresistible bass line and chirpy horn section. Written by Best
while he was still in The Wings, the song is unrecognisable from
the one that topped the Nigerian charts in 1973. ‘Let’s Spend The
Night Together’ has a groove that suggests Manford has the dance
floor on his mind, not the bedroom. ‘I Feel Like Dancing’, written
by Jake Sollo and featuring the vocals of Nigerian diva, Pat Henry,
is sophisticated and sexy and a stone cold classic of the era.
“I’ve Been Loving You” is an extraordinary metamorphosis. Manford
Best, the rough and ready guitarist from the back blocks of eastern
Nigeria, emerges as a glittering ‘disco’ butterfly, ready to strut
the dance floors of London – and the world.
