The best afrobeat album I've ever heard. I'd recommend the CD re-issue with the two bonus tracks (inc. the impeccable 'Observation Is No Crime', which is almost as good as the title track).

This sounds great. I know nothing about Afrobeat, except that I enjoy what I've heard.

[Norman Bates]

Amazing record. I dare you to play it and not start moving at least your feet. My favourite Fela track is "Lady" though.

This+ Expensive Shit= The best thing ever to exist

For some reason, I have some crazy 4 hour version of this album with a whole bunch of outtakes and different versions of the songs

The original sounds the best though. Great album. I hope this is the sort of stuff people will discover because of this new feature
