“An excerpt from the cover text: “Nigeria 1970. Highlife, Afro-beat, Rock, Jazz & Native Blues rub shoulders and are turned out at an unprecedented level. New styles meet old styles. Newfound national confidence follows the near break-up of the nation following the Biafran war.” The suggestion is that the early 70’s were a period of considerable optimism and possibilities for Nigeria which was reflected in the music.” - Caesar Tjalbo
