VARIOUS ARTISTS - Nigeria Special: Modern Highlife, Afro-Sounds & Nigerian Blues 1970-6

DateTuesday, February 5, 2008 at 09:00AM

nigeria_special.jpgWith an emphasis on the post-Biafran War early '70s and making a concerted effort to extend beyond the well-mined Lagos-centric scope, Nigeria Special brings together highlife and Afro-rock obscurities, many of which have never before been issued on CD. Boasting lovingly reproduced Waxpoetics-style sleeve spreads of all the sourced LPs and 45s and detailed biographies of the featured bands, this hefty comp is a testament to the wealth of music made in Nigeria in this golden age of African funk.

Hi Soundscapes, thanks for nice posting on Nigeria Special. Did you know:

There's an official fansite to celebrate the release of Nigeria Special at: www.nigeriaspecial.info With articles, videos, audio and more.

Is it possible to ask you to include a link in your article?
