FELA KUTI - Fear Not For Man (LP+MP3, 180g)

re-issue of Fela Kuti classic. 1977 album of premier Nigerian Afro-beat from the undisputed king. Primarily an instrumental affair, "Fear Not for Man" is less about message and more about grooves, save for Fela's short narration at the beginning, before embarking on an extended instrumental jam. One of the more peculiar tracks in Kuti's catalog, "Palm Wine Sound" is a Caribbean-styled instrumental that finishes the album in the highlife spirit of carefree fun and dancing.
