Leading groups such as the Omimah Band and the Young Kenneries,\nOwoh remained popular even as Nigerian tastes shifted to the newer Juju and Fuji styles! Before this transition,\nthe hot style in Nigeria and Ghana was called Highlife. It developed from a traditional Yoruba genre called “palm\nwine music”, overlaid with danceable guitar rhythms, and, in the hands of many musicians, it also contained a\nstrong element of Trinidadian calypso. Owoh combined this aesthetic with a traditionalist spin on things to make\nhis own brand of excellent sound.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eDr. Orlando Owoh And His Young Kenneries \u003c\/i\u003efrom 1977 comes\nswinging right out of the gate with a set of no less than nine monster tunes.
