5.0 out of 5 stars Top notch Fela, January 21, 2003

If you're looking for a really good afrobeat CD, this one is solid all the way through. All 6 tracks are nice and lengthy and high quality (even the bonus tracks). Also it comes with a booklet with a brief history of Fela and an explaination/translation of each song. If you are curious about Afrobeat check this one out. Also check out Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra.

5.0 out of 5 stars Middle of the Genius Period Dopeness from Fela, October 1, 2001

Really, wasn't it all a genius period. Perhaps not, but this record is indescribably good. If you're at all into funk, world, hip-hop, fusion, or any of the other pat categories Fela defies, pick this one up. You won't be suprised. Viva AfroBeat

Indeed this is a solid showing of Felas feel for the impossible, complex beats, soul and emotion. Try this for Felas sake. It will turn you on to Afro Beat.
