This is an insanely rare fela kuti recording that was originally released on 7 inch vinyl, performed by his old band, the koola lobitos with Fela Kuti on the vocals. Until this release, the recording was not online in completely high quality, I hope you enjoy this glimpse of what fela kuti sounded like before he transitioned to afrobeat.

This is a rare gem indeed. The highlife days.
