Nigeria had a unique music scene which began spreading rapidly in the 1970s. The era was based on unspoiled use of fuzz pedal, keyboards and indisputable influences of the psychedelic blues bands of the West. In 1980 Effi Duke & The Love Family came out with their debut 'Mr. Love'. It was released by Homzy Records which was a home of many Afro-funk records, going strong from mid '70s towards the '80s. What's so unique about 'Mr. Love' is Effi Duke's love for guitar based jazz and together with African rhythms and funky bass, his album is a great funk/jazz/disco hybrid.
