Nigeria Soul Fever: Afro Funk, Disco and Boogie: West African Disco Mayhem!
Description
SOUL JAZZ RECORDS' new Nigeria Soul Fever is the first compilation to explore the richness of 1970s Nigerian music. Between Afro-Funk, Disco, and Boogie straight from Nigeria, this triple album/double CD brings together an astonishing collection of West African sounds. While a small handful of the featured artists emerged outside Africa (Joni Haastrup, Tee Mac, Christy Essien), the majority of tracks come from artists completely unknown outside Nigeria, such as Don Bruce & The Angels, Akin Richards & The Executives, Angela Starr, and Jimmy Sherry & The Music Agents. It's no surprise that these recordings are extremely rare and expensive individually; this album will therefore save you from going bankrupt trying to find them. These tracks were recorded at a time when restrictions on Nigerian trade prohibited the import of albums. While new musical influences came to influence the country, such as American soul, funk, and disco, local music simply remained... local.
