I'm putting up a 4.5 holding rating for this, I don't listen to a lot of jazz but I like the afro influence a lot, warms it up a bit

If he's this consistent though, I'll likely get to them all eventually.

that's a great one too. you can't get wrong with Fela honestly, but some of his other albums should be listened by more people

dunno quite honestly, though I feel like Mister Follow Follow lacks the intensity of Zombie, though it has that "slow burn" quality to it that has a simmering tension rather than a full-on outburst like Zombie does.



Honestly, how he can put just two songs on a record, and make such a statement is astounding.

i dunno for me this is a 5 because of the story around it as much as anything else

I believe so



soldiers invade his compound, destroy his stuff (inc. master tapes iirc), throw his mother out the window and proceeded to do some heinous shit as well to him and his mother (who died from her injuries)



is that about a proper tl;dr?
