Nigeria 70: Lagos Jump (2lp)

It was the sound of post-independence Nigeria, a time of celebration & wealth but, ultimately, of political oppression. The music reflected the times - a heady mix of traditional rhythms & big band highlife with the new rock, soul & jazz sounds crackling through transistor radios from Europe & the U.S. Compiled by leading Afro archivist Duncan Brooker & Quinton Scott and featuring extensive sleeve notes by author John Collins.
