Fela Kuti: Deep Cuts

Fela Kuti: Deep Cuts

Prior to inventing Afrobeat, Fela was a sax-swinging bandleader who mixed jazz and highlife in tunes like "Everyday I Got My Blues." He later collaborated with other funky musicians, such as vibraphonist Roy Ayers, who brings his ringing sound to "Africa Centre of the World." Fela also lets his experimental roots show in "Dog Eat Dog," a rare extended instrumental.
