Somewhere between D-Train and Kool and the Gang, we have Tee Mac, aka Omatshola Iseli, a Nigerian flutist who put together this R&B/reggae hybrid in 1980. It’s a great summary of trends of the late Seventies, including a track called “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo,” the Buddhist chant that took LA by storm in the Eighties. Oddly, that song contains no chanting, but it does feature a solo from almost everyone in Tee Mac’s band. Sort of The Tonight Show meets the Nigerian quiet storm.
