Nigeria Freedom Sounds! Calypso, Highlife, Juju and Apala: Popular Music and The Birth Of Independent Nigeria 1960-63

A wonderful celebration of Nigerian music post independence at a time of hope and optimism. The fine musicianship and great spirit that the sound is drenched in makes this one of the best archeologies of African music I've heard for a few years. A real treat.

Great album, positive and uplifting... a little bit different... a little bit brilliant! Definitely worth a buy and it will soon become your soundtrack for summer...
