Expensive Shit Fela Kuti SKU: KFR2015-1 Barcode: 5051083081771 15.00 £15.00 Genre: World / Fusion Label: Knitting Factory Released Date: 27th August 2014 Buying Format: 1LP Includes Download Code Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info Nigerian police, seeking to frame Fela Kuti, tried to plant a joint of marijuana on him during a gathering at his home. Wise to their plan, he quickly swallowed the joint. However, the police threw him in jail to wait for the evidence to make its way through his system. With some wily plotting Fela escaped charges and subsequently produced this opus mocking the police for wasting resources on hassling him instead of furthering justice in Nigeria. Opening brass sounds give way to interplay between Fela’s narration about the episode and responses from his group of female singers. LP reissues with digital download code.
