Top View Pool Bar Band


After traveling for nearly 24 hours on 3 airplanes and 5 airports we arrived in Abuja, Nigeria. Exhausted, we were met by our contact from the American University Ibrahim Buba. A very friendly man with very nice shoes, he drove us from the airport to our hotel in Abuja, the Top View. Our flight to Yola was delayed for a day, so we stayed all day Wednesday at the hotel, eating, napping, and taking a leisurely walk around the neighborhood. Wednesday evening we caught a live band by the pool in the hotel, bass, keys, drums and vocals. They performed a variety of western hits and local high life music. I recorded some of their set, including a cover version of Karma Chamelion
and Knock on wood
