CD (Item 498449) Kalakuta, — Condition: New Copy

A great little Fela compilation of some of the Black President's most iconic material – plus a DVD featuring excerpts from documentaries and concerts over the years! This 2CD set features Fela's classic mid 70s recordings - with some of them edited down to shorter takes than the extended ones that appear on the full LPs, or "part 2" versions, but the track on the CDs is nearly 7 minutes long. It offers up a very strong sampling of some of his best work, and includes many classic titles like "Army Arrangement" (part 2), "Lady", "Shakara", "Gentleman" (edit), "Zombie", "Water No Get Enemy" (edit), "No Agreement" (part 2), "Roforofo Fight", "Coffin For Head Of State" (part 2), "ODOO" (edit), and "Sorrow, Tears, & Blood". This deluxe edition includes a DVD compilation, containing excerpts of documentaries & concerts, including bits from Music Is The Weapon, Fela At The Glastonbury Festival,Fela At The Berlin Jazz Fiestvial, and more, plus interviews. (The Region & Code of the DVD are not listed so you may need a multi region DVD player to view.)  © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
