Where it came from
Released in 1975 on the Akpola label, this recording captures the traditional musical performances of the Asonogun group from the town of Irrua, located in the Esan region of Nigeria. During the 1970s, Akpola played a significant role in documenting regional Nigerian folk traditions, providing a platform for local cultural ensembles whose work might otherwise have remained confined to community rituals and festivals.
The album serves as an ethnographic archive of the rhythmic and vocal patterns intrinsic to Uwessan-Irrua culture. Like many releases from the Akpola catalog, the design is utilitarian, focusing on the preservation of indigenous performance styles rather than commercial artifice. It remains a valued document for ethnomusicologists and collectors interested in the post-independence Nigerian recording industry's efforts to codify traditional heritage.
