Osibisa - Sunshine Day

Review by Dagmar Rogers

Sunshine Day, the 1975 album by Osibisa, is a true masterpiece of Afro-rock fusion. The album is a perfect blend of African rhythms, funk, jazz, and rock music that creates a unique and infectious sound. The band, which was formed in London in 1969, was known for their energetic live performances and their ability to blend different musical genres seamlessly.

The album features some of Osibisa's most popular tracks, including "Sunshine Day," "Dance the Body Music," and "Survival." Each song is a celebration of life, love, and the power of music. The band's use of traditional African instruments such as the balafon, kora, and talking drum, combined with electric guitars, bass, and drums, creates a sound that is both familiar and exotic.

The album's standout track, "Sunshine Day," is a perfect example of Osibisa's unique sound. The song's infectious groove, catchy chorus, and uplifting lyrics make it a timeless classic. The song is a celebration of life and the joy that comes with the arrival of a new day.
