Nigeria Special Vol 2: Nigerian Blues 70-76 VINYL

"This handsome package of forgotten hits and obscurities shows that Afrobeat's loping, jazzy style was just one strand of Nigeria's vibrant scene. Stephen Osita Osadebe's great version of Cuba's "Peanut Vendor" rubs shoulders with blues, funk, jazz and the more traditional, languid sounds of highlife and juju. Aside from slinky rhythms and call-and-response vocals, the 18 tracks share a mood of experimentalism; try "Totobiroko" by Twins Seven, these days feted as one of Africa's greatest painters." The Guardian
