Featuring 32 electrifying and Funk laden grooves, this is the sound of a generation attempting to pick up the pieces after the devastation of the Nigerian civil war. Spread over 2 CDs, this bumper collection is brimming with youthful exuberance, fuzzed out guitar and cosmic organ vibes and owes much to the psychedelic sounds of Jim Morrison, Santana, Hendrix, Jefferson Airplane and James Brown. As the summer of love was blossoming in London and San Francisco, Nigeria was imploding into civil war. Also known as the Biafran war of 1967, it was a grisly conflict taking over three million lives yet at the same time as the country was being pulled apart there was a new world beginning. The tracks featured represent a forgotten chapter in Nigeria's musical history when the youth threw their varied morsels into the pot from Hard Rock to Psychedelic Soul when guitars were cherished instruments, symbolic of a new movement, when highlife and Afrobeat played second fiddle to 'the beat'.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNwantinti\/Die Die - Ify Jerry Krusade (mono)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRough Rider - Hygrades (mono)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeiyo Deiyo (Akpuwunlobi) - Hykkers (mono)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoundway - Hykkers\/Wrinkar Experience (mono)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBreakthrough - Wrinkars Experience\/Funkees (mono)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMr. Bull Dog [Original 45 Version] - Funkees\/The Mebusas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDon't Take Me for a Ride - Foundars 15\/The Mebusas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEti Ufok - Ceejebs\/The Founders 15 (mono)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYem Efe - Ceejebs\/Tony Grey Super 7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAkwa Kayi Ji Bia Nuwa - Tony Grey Super 7\/The Identicals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlacky Joe - P.R.O.\/The Identicals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOli Nkwu - Cicada\/P.R.O.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLife's Gone Down Low - Cicada\/The Lijadu Sisters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIkoko - Eppi Fanio\/The Lijadu Sisters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll Night Long - Bongos Ikwue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBabalawo - The Thermometers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOttoto Shamoleda - Colomach\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorld Ends, The - The Black Mirrors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIsi Agboncha - Semi Colon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMoney That's What I Want - Lawrence Amavi Group\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSomebody's Gotta Lose or Win - Hygrades (mono)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn Concert - Ofege\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChokoi \u0026amp; Oreje - The Elcados\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOhomi - Sonny Okosuns \u0026amp; Paperback Limited\/Sonny Okosuns\/Paperbac\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBe Kind, Be Foolish, Be Happy - Voices of Darkness\/Chuck Barrist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUgbo Ndoma - Reme Izabebo's Music Research\/Tony Grey \u0026amp; The Magni\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSame Man [Ayamayama], The - The Action 13\/Reme Izabebo's Music R\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eActive Action - Action 13\/The Action 13\/The Actions (mono)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKpokposikposi - The Actions\/The Strangers (mono)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOnye Ije - The Comrades\/The Strangers (mono)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBullwalk - The Comrades\/Ofo The Black Company\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEgwu Aja - Ofo The Black Company\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"504","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":50570568892712,"sku":"84683300002","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/3833\/7576\/files\/1674312.jpg?v=1763989081","url":"https:\/\/waterloorecords.com\/products\/va-africa-world-ends-afro-rock-psyched-cd-4683300002","provider":"Waterloo Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
