Teddy Osei, osisbisa

One of the favourite venues for Osibisa in the early 70's was Friars Aylesbury.
The vibes was so great and lots of fun to perform to wonderful live music lovers.

I remember at one summer gig at Friars the place was jamming hot and the band
was in one of their cosmic heights that resulted in some of the fans took their clothes off and danced naked. That was the magic of Osibisa and Friars.
Will always remember this.
