HOT ! Other Products ｜Fela Kuti: Shakara (Colored Vinyl) Vinyl LP+7"

"Shakara is the sixth in the series of celebratory Fela Kuti 50th Anniversary reissues. Like its predecessors in the series, this version is pressed on color vinyl and wrapped in a gold foil obi strip with a brief essay on the album and Fela’s global impact on music. Like Fela’s other early 70's releases, he used each side of his LPs to create a deep groove that pulls the listener in and follows with metaphoric lyrics that call out and critique the corrupt hangover of colonialism. This special edition also includes a bonus 7" of the two album tracks, Lady and Shakara, remixed by Ezra Collective. One of the most important bands in the UK at the moment, Ezra Collective is pioneering a new sound that hails from UK grime, hip hop, Afrobeat, and jazz." - Knitting Factory Records
