Revivalist's African Jazz Issue: Nigera 70 CD Give-Away Contest!


We've been talking about Strut's latest Nigeria 70 compilation, Sweet Times: Afro Funk, Highlife & Juju. The infectious grooves of afro-funk, disco, soul and rock meet highlife guitar and hypnotic juju.  The 3rd in the Nigeria 70 series, this album was entirely compiled by crate-digger Duncan Brooker who spent seven years in Africa getting his fingers dusty searching for rare 60s and 70s funk. Hit up Revivalist now to hear some cuts off the album and for your chance to WIN a FREE CD!
