bernadettaart: Really nice!
My new favorite pic, I took this with a DISPOSABLE $3.00 camera while lunging Rocky . The white background is natural, it was taken with Rocky trotting in front of the giant white boards that Highlife uses to take their professional horse pics. I LOVE THIS PIC!! I only cropped it, did nothing else to it. I will post the original soon. I LOVE THIS PIC!!

OGHENE KOLOGBO & AFRO SOCIAL CLUB
The Professor Doctor Mad Guitar himself! Kologbo played on 39 legendary Fela Kuti records!
The Legend Goes On - Fela Anikulapo Kuti Guitar Giant Master
AFROBEAT LEGEND ON THE STAGE
Oghene Kologbo
Oghene Kologbo was an integral member of the Fela Anikulapo Kuti & Africa 70 band. This made his tight tenor guitar playing be a fundamental presence in all the masterpiece records that defined the sound of Afrobeat and brought him to play with people of the likes of James Brown, Stevie Wonder, Lester Bowie, Paul McCartney, to name a few.
Guitar legend Oghene Kologbo was born in Warri, Nigeria in 1957. His father was a well known highlife musician. When Kologbo was a teenager, he began performing with the revolutionary Afrobeat master Fela Kuti. Kologbo went on to record more than 50 sides with Africa 70. He played the hypnotic tenor guitar lines, but often recorded bass and rhythm guitar too. Kologbo was Fela’s personal assistant and "tape recorder". That is, it was his job to remember the melodies Fela would sing to him late at night, then teach them to the band at rehearsal the next day. In 1978, after a show at the Berlin Jazz Festival, Kologbo left the band (along with Tony Allen and a few others) and stayed in Berlin. In the 1980s and 1990s, Kologbo worked with the legendary but short-lived Roots Anabo. He also toured and recorded with King Sunny Ade, Tony Allen, and Brenda Fosse, among others. In 2005, Kologbo began working with the Afrobeat Academy, Berlin’s heaviest afrobeat ensemble.

LA MULA SANTA
(Berlin / Chile /Armenia / Spain / Malta / Australia)
(Berliner Cumbia Götter)
The First Chilean Cumbia Band from Berlin
From Tierra del Fuego at the extreme southern of South America until the United States, from the Andes to the Atlantic coast, the Colombian Cumbia is popular, while in Europe it is still an amazingly well kept secret. Located on the Caribbean coast of Colombia, this music has been not only in Latin America but also international success. The Band identity comes not only from the infectious beat of the Cumbia, but also of different Latin-American rhythms like Merengue, Salsa, Bomba, Guajira, Reggaeton and Latin Rock.
