ADP018 – Take Me Back To Lagos, Nigeria (Mansion /Celebrant / Identicals / Visitors / Mary Afi Usuah / Super Wings..)

Hi dear readers !
It’s been a while since the last time we met ! This week, we travel to Nigeria, this strange and continuously moving country, with a few tracks from several well known Afro Rock / Funk and Disco bands back in the 70’s ! Hope you’ll enjoy this selection, it took me some time to prepare it, because those LP’s are reaaally hard to find nowadays, especially in such exceptional condition !
See you really soon for another Selection !
You can download the selection here !
