Ofo The Black Company was formed in 1972 by Larry Ifediorama in Lagos, Nigeria. That same year, he took his band to London, England to record their only single for London Records. The single with “Allah Wakbarr” on the A side and “Beautiful Daddy” on the B side is highly collectable, usually fetching $100 or more per copy. Allah Wakbar has also been featured on the now defunct Afro Strut label’s Nigeria 70: The Definitive Story of 1970’s Read more on Last.fm
