Celebrate the legacy of Fela Kuti with the 50th Anniversary Edition of his groundbreaking album, Afrodisiac. This remarkable collection features iconic tracks that were re-recorded with the Nigeria 70 band at the legendary Abbey Road Studios in 1971, marking a pivotal moment in the Afrobeat genre.
Originally released in Nigeria on 45rpm, this album produced some of Fela’s first major hits, with ‘Jeun Ko Ku’ standing out as a powerful commentary on gluttony. The title, which translates to ‘eat and die’, captures the satirical essence of Fela’s music. Dive into this unique vintage experience with this stunning 2LP set.
