Igo Chico played tenor saxophone for Fela Kuti's afrobeat entourage Africa '70 during its formative period in the early-1970s. He eventually left the band after a dispute with Kuti, who took up tenor saxophone himself to replace him. A characteristic Chico tenor solo is his performance in the tune "Monday Morning In Lagos" from the album He Miss Road. Another definitive solo appears in "It's No Possible (Ko Se Se)" from the same album.
