this guy replicated every single phase of Fela rendition of this sone.......only in a faster pace...He is good too, very good i'd say.

@Wavecurve I sense that that is a rhetorical question, and that no answer I would give you would have any other effect than to make you angry, so I'm not going to rise to the bait.

@lexo30 If you must reproduce some body's music, should you not, at least, approach the quality of the original?

Seems to me that if Fela Kuti had a legacy worth passing on, it had more to do with inspiring people to think for themselves and be critical and creative, than with slavishly following every last detail of his arrangements. Sure, he was a taskmaster but he had his own vision and wanted his musicians to bring it forth. Now that he's dead, we have the records if we want to be zombies (!) and copy him - or we can pick up the ball he was forced to let drop and we can run with it.

@Wavecurve As if the point of music was to exactly reproduce somebody else's performance...

Quel massacre...
comment ne rien comprendre à un morceau de Fela

y'all should stop complaining... It is impossible to play Fela's music at the same level as he did... he was a spiritual presence... You can't get that sound just by being a good musician... I think people should be encouraged to make an effort to let people experience some of Fela's concept live... not in hope of being as good, but inspiring people to go out and get the original albums. Also, Fela's message was about rebellion in the face of authority, not copying people like ZOMBIES....
