RELEASE DATE

LP version. PMG present a reissue of
Igna Igwebuike
's
Bomp
, originally released in 1980. "It takes a lot of swag to wear a hat as big as the hat that
I.G.
wears on the cover of
Bomp
. But I.G., a.k.a.
Bobby I.G.
, a.k.a.
I.G. New Yorker
, had swag by the bucket load. That hat tells you everything you need to know about I.G. and, indeed, about
Bomp
- it's a big funky slice of Nigerian cowboy disco magic. I.G. was a player in the thriving Enugu boogie scene, a scene, in the east of the country that also produced
Goddy Oku
and
William Onyeabor
. With
Mr Mighty Flames
,
Willie N'For
on bass,
Austin Onwurah
on drums and all the bells and whistles of the Godiac Studios close at hand, a Nigerian disco classic was inevitable. 'Disco Bomp' and 'Disco Power' are straight-ahead floor-fillers. 'Funk Ina Ghatto' has a slower, dirtier groove. 'World Of Misery' takes a slight calypso reggae detour, before 'Take Me Home' brings it on home, with an unabashed plea for 'loving' and some delightfully wonky synth lines from another Mighty Flame,
Frankie Song
.
Bomp
was I.G.'s only album. It's a startling one-off disco boogie classic that was clear in its ambition and perfect in its execution. A bit like the hat, really." --
Peter Moore
