2894107, My favorite Fela cuts unfortunately have not been reissued

but I'm sure you can probably find 'em out there on yer Napsters or Limewires or whatever computer radio you kids are using nowadays.

I really like the early 70s singles like "Jeun K'oku"

there was a really taut, explosive energy on those records that dissipated on the album cuts... perhaps because there was much less time available to make the statement.

Also, I really love his earlier stuff from the 1960s (a lot of those have been reissued)
