It takes both an incredible musical talent and unbelievable presence to create an entire genre of music out of thin air. But that's what Fela Kuti did. Arguably the world has never seen a more more confident musician. He wasn't just performing a concert, he was holding a church service, and the audience were his converts!
Fantastic stage presence. One of my life's greatest achievements was simply to have been fortunate enough have seen Fela play live on numerous occasions. Each one was special. He has no equal!
Im so happy i witnessed live over the years the many nights when Fela will close the show playing this tune....it was the choice song for the "boys"....to ba ti di owo dere!!!.
always with Fela and Africa 70 and africa Egypt and Sean Kuti as well who is a dignified son of Fela touring with all the power even at small venues I know I was there in 2019 inZwolle a smalltownin the netherlands. Also in Paradiso with Dennis Brown on the sound system Felaliterallytore the Roof down and the full housse got invaded by all the brethren from outside.Magic, pure magic, transformational sound and spirit.
Is it impossible to find more full HD material from Fela? Unfortonately i believe this is the only live footage with a real good sound on the internet. thanks!
as always. 100% of his work. a lot of weed, african genetics are crazy strong and energetic...like his music. they had "their own country" independent from nigeria...they just jammed all day making music smoking some illegal stuff some suazi gold....

I can't think of a more worthwhile way to spend a lifetime than playing rhythm guitar in this band!
Exactly!
Ol Boy Was Gettin Loose! Wasn’t He?! 😂😂😂
This generation and next still have alot to learn from this great man
Yes my brother
People in the audience were so lucky to witness this pure talent and showmanship. Fela awakens me to the strenght and beauty of the african soul!
Very rare does a day go by that I don’t play Fela Kuti. Simply amazing!! It is my dream to one day visit Lagos!
Fela was slightly ahead of his time...like 2 or 3 centuries
How can you not love black people man.
RIP Tony Allen... creator of the master beats behind all the 70s Fela music.
Fela = G.O.A.T 🐐 (Greatest Of All Time)

Fela Kuti, my ancestor and one of the people that really I get inspired.
This is great. You can see that he was a huge inspiration on the Talking Heads: both in terms of the sound and the stage presence.
Amazing rhythms, incredible grooves, and fantastic arrangements
RIP Tony Allen, legendary Africa 70's drummer. Se will miss you!
Tony Allen had left the band at this point, such a loss!

What organ is Fela using in this performance? big blue. Farfisa VIP maybe?
It's a Viscount or Intercontinental duo (Italian electric organ sold under various trade names). He used it extensively in the 70s.
