Or more specifically last time I was in Nigeria. I'm off to Ghana (and surrounding countries) in a week so in lieu of writing anything of note I thought I would link to a blog post from my last trip around those parts. I'm excited as hell. Stay tuned for what I hope will be endless new African funk & disco jams.
