He is mentioned in several books about juju music, and he features on the wonderful CD "Awon Ojise Olorun -Popular Music in Yorubaland 1931-1952". But nevertheless Theophilus Iwalokun seems doomed to be one of the many forgotten heroes of African music.

I am relieved that someone has been kind to immortalize this great musician from Ilaje land of Ondo state. I like his music for the philosophical stance. I will appreciate if someone could assist me to lay hand on some of his collection of music, most especiallythe one displayed on this blog: Itoju Obi and Suru-lere.I could be contact via daisyfount136@yahoo.com. I am in California and could be reached on 818 442-7441
Thanks
