Lagos By Bus Aphrodesia c/o Rock Paper Scissors 511 West 4th street, Suite 2, Bloomington, In 47404Cyber 1039, 15.99 www.rockpaperscissors.biz

Featuring an Afrobeat, but also drawing substantially pn Afro- Cuban music, Ghanalan highlife, and jazz, the San Francisco-based band Aphrodesia offers two women vocalists whose songs alternate from chant to melodic song.  With flawless production values, thier new CD "Lagos By Bus"  features nine outstanding tracks that include: Virgin of the Son God (5:00); White Elaphant (3:34); Holy Ghost Invasion ( 1:55); Bus Drive (7:39); Ago Mado (1:33); Ochun Mi (6:25); Every Day (7:09); Agayu (6:21); and World Under Fire (7:50).  Distinctive, rythmic, original, and memorable, "Lagos By Bus" is a superb addition to personal and community library CD music collections.
