Product Description
The renewed popularity of Afrobeat in dance music has been well documented with a number of compilations. Strut Records takes the idea forward with a definitive look at funky Lagos during the 1970s over 3CDs (in slipcases) & 3LPs. The project digs into the Nigerian archives, from established names Fela Kuti (from his early days to his later work with Africa 70), King Sunny Ade and Sir Victor Uwaifo & many unsung heroes. The set comes with a fully edited documentary as the 3rd CD narrated with exclusive interviews with many of the key figures in Lagos at the time from King Sunny Ade and Ebenezer Obey to Ginger Baker, Roy Ayers, Fela and Femi Kuti. From Strut/Studio K7.
