Biography

It's almost impossible to overstate the impact and importance of Fela Anikulapo Kuti to the global musical village.

Fela Kuti's death on August 3, 1997 of complications from AIDS deeply affected musicians and fans internationally, as a musical and sociopolitical voice on a par with Bob Marley was silenced. A press release from the United Democratic Front of Nigeria on the occasion of Fela Kuti's… Read more in Amazon's Fela Kuti Store

Wonderful 21 July 2006
Format:Audio CD
1985.

With production help from Wally Badarou, Fela Kuti offers up a wonderful mix of songs - well 2, in both vocal and instrumental versions. Best of all is "Look and Laugh," which explains the attack by Nigerian soldiers on his compound. With simple lyrics, Fela Kuti runs down the true horror of that attack in a detached, third person manner: "Till dem come/burn my house/burn my house/all my property/burn burn dem/beat beat me/kill my mama."

More than music - a description of an existence most of us can only sympathise with rather than understand.

Possibly his best work. 1 Aug 2002
By Deji Osinulu - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
You can tell that Baba 70 put a lot of work into this album. From the lyrics and wordplay, to the tight instrumental arrangement. It has been and still remains my favorite Fela composition.

I never heard this one performed live at The Shrine, so it is not one of those that bring back the memories of late nights - sometimes wet, loud speakers thumping into your gut while you yell out the lyrics of the song along with "Abami Eda" - one of Fela's many nicknames.

It is, on the other hand, one of those albums that I listen to late at night, when it is really quiet and you are able to hear each instrument more clearly. Time and time again you discern a different pattern in the intricate tapestry woven by the many instruments that make up "Egypt 80". It is also one of those in which you listen to the instrumental solos and decide that nothing more could have been added or taken away.

Released on CD in 1986 (I'm assuming the LP was released at this time as well), this album is made up of 2 tracks - the title track and "Look And Laugh"; and was produced by Wally Badarou. I recommend it highly, if you are able to find it.

"Everybody say Yeah Yeah!!"

The GREATEST of all times 17 Nov 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
GREATEST hit of all times. Non has come close so far. If you like this track, you will also like BREAST OF NO NATIONS.

One of his best works ... 21 Aug 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
... the instrumental on T.D.T.M.N. will blow you away and is probably the best on any of his releases. The album was produced by Wally Badarou. If you intend to have any of "Baba 70's" albums, this one is a must have!!
