In a church on a leafy street in Chelsea, Manhattan, saints in stained glass windows smile benevolently down on the drums of Africa beating out their message of spiritual love. At the center of a group of players from Africa, the Caribbean and America is the venerable Babatunde Olatunji, the Nigerian drummer whose landmark 1958 release, Drums of Passion, first restored Africa's ancient and always modern rhythms to the land that banned them in slavery days, America. --- Vivien Goldman | |
