"Without Tony Allen, there would be no afrobeat" Tony Allen
"Perhaps the greatest drummer who has ever lived" Brian Eno
There can be no disputing the fact that Tony Allen is a legend not just of afrobeat but in 20th century live music.
Here we present the album launch show of his new record on Blue Note, a set of originals inspired by his hero, Art Blakey.
