Yusuf Olatunji, also known as Baba Legba or Baba L’Egbaa (1909-1978),〔(Abiodun Salawu, "Reeling Nostalgia: ‘Aremote’ and the Enduring Sakara Music in Nigeria", ''Journal of Global Mass Communication'', Vol. II, Nos. 1/2 (Winter/Spring 2009), p. 114. )〕 was a Nigerian Sakara drum player, who popularized the sakara music style. He was purportedly born in 1909 in a village called Gbegbinlawo in Ogun State in south-western Nigeria, although there are still doubts about the location of his birth. His mid-life conversion to Islam boosted his career in Yoruba music. He was born a Christian and he hailed from Iseyin in Oyo State. He was formerly known as Joseph Olatunji. He died in December 1978. ==References== Discography: Yusufu Olatunji and His Group Yekinni Tiamiyu b/w Amusa Adeoye (78; HMV () J.Z. 5252) 1969 Yusufu Olatunji and His Group In Action Vol. 1 (Philips PL 13411)(CD; Premier Music () PLCD 007 (Vol. 1 Bolowo Bate )) () Surakaty Eki / Jioh Gbensola / Raufu Adegbite / Egbe Ifenirepo () Bolowo Bate / Ganiyu Ladeyinde / Yekini Akintoye / Egbe Iwajowa Ijebu-Ode ?
