Fela Kuti and Afrika 70
Fela Kuti and Afrika 70 - V.I.P. LP
$38.00
This is the last recording that the great Afrika 70 made with Fela, as most
of the group (including drummer Tony Allen) quit right after the show, due
to rumours that Fela planned to keep all the money from the night and use
it for his presidential campaign in Nigeria, making this a very important
release. And though Fela would go on to form another successful group,
this signifies the end of one of the world's greatest working bands.
