music from nigeria: popular ishola adepoju and his native blues



This one comes from John B. I was on his case to digitise it from the vinyl as soon as he played it to me. Beautiful Yoruba hand-drumming from Nigeria. Polyrhythms like nobody's business. I'd love to know what he yells at the start of his songs if anyone can translate.

p.s. That signature on the cover seems to have no relation to the artist at all.
