Fela Kuti and the Egyptian 80 Orchestra/CA, USA 1986

Fela Kuti & Egypt 80, the founders of Afro-beat music that silences crying children and are known as the Black Presidents, and together with Bob Marley are the most important and popular musicians outside of the West. The famous performance in Los Angeles from the legendary American tour immediately after his release from prison appears for the first time! ! ! In the 1980s, the group changed its name again to Egypt 80, and in addition to their music activities, they actively participated in lectures and symposiums, and as they received enthusiastic support from young people, the government began to question their influence. In 1984, he was sentenced to 10 years in prison. However, the judge who sentenced him announced that the sentence was unfair due to pressure, and he was released in 1986 due to an international support campaign. He immediately resumed his music activities, and from the first American tour that started, it is said that it was a famous performance that was even hotter and more soulful than the Detroit performance that was officially released in 2012.He performed in Los Angeles on November 15, 1986. A must-have edition for everyone, dripping with dark juice, captured live at the Olympic Auditorium on the label’s own carefully mastered, extremely high-quality stereo soundboard! ! ! In the 80’s, Egypt 80 introduced a bolder electric sound than ever before, and you can hear the evolution of Afro beat that continues to the present day. The set list includes songs from 1986’s “Teacher Don’t Teach Me Nonsense” to “Just Like That,” and Fela’s last album, “Underground System,” released in 1992. Fella’s mature Afro groove explodes for 75 minutes, centering on “Confusion Break Bone”, which is the prototype for Fela’s famous song “Confusion”, which is included in “Confusion”. The band starts playing a basic rhythm with Fela’s signal, and when the percussion and guitar begin to play, Fela begins to play the organ/electric piano, and the other members follow Fela’s signal and join in the performance one by one. , Fela’s saxophone solo starts, and it gets exciting with an African call and response with the backing horn group, and when the long instrumental part ends, Fela’s vocal and the call and response with the backing chorus start. Gradually, he is led into the euphoric world of drugged performance. As I surrendered to the long number, which progressed with a strong earth-shaking groove and a beautiful melody line, I felt so comfortable that I lost all sense of time, and felt very happy. He was influenced by James Brown, also known as the (Funky) President, a black president who stood up to the nation alone and ended up living a turbulent life, but who had tremendous tolerance and kindness. On the other hand, enjoy the final chapter of the passionate struggle, or even the masterful performance, of the great Fela Kuti, the founder of Afrobeat that influenced JB! ! !
