Miles Cleret - Nigerian Rock

Miles Cleret - Nigerian Rock (MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) 2012-06-23 The worldwide 70s Afro revival in music has to be credited first of all to a few diggers and record collectors, who have ignited a flame all over the world that should be burning for many years. Miles Cleret is one of them, he launched the Soundway Records label 10 years ago whose influence cannot be denied (check our article).
