Скачать или смотреть Ebenezer Obey - Adam & Eve (1977)

“‘Adam & Eve’” is a juju track by the legendary Nigerian maestro Chief Commander Ebenezer Obey. Born Ebenezer Remilekun Aremu Olasupo Obey-Fabiyi, performed with his Inter-Reformers Band. The song was released in 1977 from his album of the same title "Adam & Eve", on Nigerian Decca Records label. The song is a landmark in juju music, blending Yoruba proverbs, Christian moral teachings, and Obey’s signature layered guitar work with talking drums and complex percussion. The title track “Adam & Eve” used the biblical story as an allegory to speak about love, relationships, and morality, reflecting Obey’s frequent fusion of spiritual themes with everyday life. At the time, Obey was at the height of his popularity in Nigeria and West Africa, rivalling King Sunny Ade as one of juju’s foremost ambassadors. While the record did not chart internationally (since juju was still largely a regional genre then), it became a staple in his live performances and remains one of the classic tracks that illustrate the philosophical depth and community-oriented messages in his music.
