General notes about this release (please note: our version may differ a little. see the comments above):
LP version. Gatefold sleeve. Kalita Records release the first ever compilation focusing on the musical career of Julie Coker, the queen of Nigerian television. Here the label collates seven of Julie's most sought-after Afro disco and hauntingly-beautiful Itsekiri highlife recordings, accompanied by extensive interview-based liner notes and never-before seen photos. After gaining fame as Miss Western Nigeria 1957, Julie began her career in the Nigerian entertainment industry as the country's first ever (and Africa's second) female television presenter, as well as a popular national radio host. In 1976, having been surrounded by close musical friends, including Fela Kuti and Kris Okotie, Julie entered the Nigerian music scene with the now-invisible psychedelic highlife album Ere Yon (Sweet Songs) (1976), followed in 1981 by the highly sought-after disco-centric Tomorrow to great acclaim. Both now fetch eye-watering prices on the rare occasion that they become available for sale. Kalita Records select four recordings from Ere Yon (Sweet Songs) and three from Tomorrow, all as contemporary-sounding today as they were when first released forty years ago. These include Julie's "Ere Yon", which was recently re-interpreted by Anderson .Paak on Oxnard released on Dr. Dre's Aftermath imprint in 2018, and the lost Afro disco classic "Gossiper Scandal Monger". In partnership with Julie, Kalita Records believe the time is right to share Julie's phenomenal story and music with the world once more.

Light Sunscreen with a Nice Tropical Scent
Sun protection factor: 30 Sun Protection Factor (SPF), Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)
I really like this sunscreen spray for everyday use. It feels lightweight on the skin, sprays on easily, and doesn’t leave a heavy or sticky feeling. The tropical scent smells really nice too. Good option for the beach, pool, or just being outside.

Works and feels Great
Sun protection factor: 70 Sun Protection Factor (SPF), Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I just got back from The beautiful island of St Thomas USVI and used this product all throughout my vacation. I’m really picky about sunscreen formula and having dark combination skin, it’s pretty important that I find one I can work with. This was great! It was hydrating but didn’t feel too oily, the smell was subtle and not overwhelming, and I didn’t burn all week especially when I was on a different beach in different areas of the island it worked beautiful for me

Very good... with a comment.
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
As a bald dude, I fine the fact that it is matt good. Check it before you leave or, if you use to much, looks like white face upon drydown and in dry areas. I like it. I do. And it protected me from the hot sun of the middle east. No burn. Just needs a second check after about 10 minutes. But very good at what it does!!!

Excellent product.
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Excellent product. The sun is extremely strong where I live, and I've been using this for several days now; it lasts a very long time on the skin. However, if you have very sensitive skin, I wouldn't recommend using it on your face—in my case, it caused a breakout. But for the neck, body, and arms, it’s excellent. I highly recommend it, and it doesn't leave a bad feel on the skin or an unpleasant smell. If you use it in the water, it is recommended to reapply every hour and 20 minutes, otherwise you might get sunburned.

Daily Staple Sunscreen
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been really impressed with this sunscreen—it’s become a daily staple for my face and hands. The SPF 70 gives great peace of mind, especially with regular sun exposure, and it feels lightweight rather than heavy or greasy. It absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave that thick white cast, which is a huge plus for everyday wear. On my face, it layers well under makeup without pilling, and on my hands, it doesn’t feel sticky or transfer onto everything I touch. I also appreciate that it holds up well throughout the day without needing constant reapplication (unless I’m outside a lot). Overall, it’s a reliable, high-protection sunscreen that’s comfortable enough to use every day.
