Top notch Fela,
By Otis W Horning (New Haven, CT United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Roforofo Fight / Fela Singles (Audio CD)
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.

Middle of the Genius Period Dopeness from Fela,
By Mr. Sumn Sumn (Lawrence, KS) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Roforofo Fight / Fela Singles (Audio CD)
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

Fela is it.,

This review is from: Roforofo Fight / Fela Singles (Audio CD)
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.

Very Solid Record,
By Scott McFarland (Manassas, VA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Roforofo Fight / Fela Singles (Audio CD)
Each of the first four tracks was originally one side of a 2-LP set, circa 1972. Each of them is a fine musical piece too. Everything that was to make Fela great is here in some form, great strong rhythms, bouncing bass, great arranged horn parts, clever vocals. Great record, augmented by two previously unreleased tracks from the same period.

Original or Re-mixed?,
By dagmar (Cardiff, California United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Roforofo Fight / Fela Singles (Audio CD)
There are two versions of this album. The original CD, and a re-mastered version on the Wrasse Records label.
Can anybody say which is better? |
