Monomono’s roots trace back to Fela Kuti’s band: the leader of Monomono (which means “dawn of awareness” in Yoruba), Friday Jumbo, was originally a congeuro for Fela and left the band to join forces with vocalist Joni Haastrup (who would blossom into a legend) and bassist Kenneth Okulolo…They put out several albums in the early/mid-1970s from http://soul-sides.com
