What many do not know is that Professor Blake was the leader of a band in Sierra Leone in the 1960s. The band called “The Golden Strings” was the best in that country at that time but Blake left that calling for the academia while some of the band members went ahead to become great in the Music industry of that country.
Recently, the Fourth edition of the Idowu Sobowale conference was held in honour of Cecil Blake in Free Town, Capital of Sierra Leone and he seized that opportunity to test his hands on the drums, remembering the good old days.
