"The USP, though, is the horn section: instead of the rudimentary fanfares of many Afrobeat bands (Fela's Afrika 70 included), this lot have some serious chops - and a baritone sax player who can raise goosebumps".

"A tight backing of trombones and saxophones give each track irresistible danceability; Kuti would probably look to the horns as a litmus test of afrobeat quality, and in this regard Bixiga 70 shoot off the scale".
