Teacher don't teach me no nonsense. I'm glad I found this. Saw the play 'FELA' and my friend was lost as to what was happening. This is almost a biography of Fela Kuti. Covers all the information in the show. A great piece to add to any library. Also you get the bonus '78 concert.

Fela Kuti in Top Form
This is Fela Kuti at his very best, performing in Berlin. He had a terrific band; I don't know what happened to all of them. If you like his music, then this is definitely a must-have.

If you are a fan, you won't be wowed, because you already live him daily. If you are not a fan, you will be wowed absolutely.

そうですねー。確かにFELA KUTI のライブは、初めて観ましたが、予想どうり、格好いいライブに仕上がってると思いました。が、途中、画面の不具合がありました。内容については、以前からFELA KUTIのレコードを数枚、所有してるので、ライブは圧巻でしたね。このDVDを勧めるなら、ジャンル問わず色々な音楽を聴いている人にお勧めしたいとおもいました。
