2.5 averageHot Bowser | March 17th 24

title is a happy dancy jungly jazzer, the two tracks that follow less and less so, while mistake live brings it up again a bit but not much

4.2 excellentErwann S. EMERITUS | May 7th 20

Zombies = Nigerian military. With such a harsh and powerful comparison, the Nigerian dictature organized a cataclysmic military raid causing the death of Kuti's mother. It's incredible such a serious topic was transmitted through such bouncy Afrobeat. True fusion music, with elements of funk, post-bop, and traditional Western African music. It's just fucking good, and it's legendary given the context.

Fela Kuti invented Afro-Beat in the 60's and perfected it with this 1977 release. Zombie might just be the funkiest track every to be put to tape.
