Nigerian Classic Rock

Many people probably don't realize that in the 1970s Nigeria had a classic rock scene with some really good bands. The most notable was BLO, a band that never really broke out of Nigeria but had some really memorable songs. The African rhythms interacting with the Jimi Hendrix and James Brown influences is really interesting and refreshing. Below is one of my favorite tunes accompanied by a spotify playlist of a few other bands from that scene.
