Fela Kuti & The Africa 70 –Zombie

Jimi Tenor: I remember buying »Zombie« and »Nail« back to back. A good week. I knew what I was looking for anyway. A friend had told me about Fela »who’s intros last 10 minutes«. Classic saxophone melody and solo start this record. Fela was a trumpet player but learned to play saxophone later on to replace a great player in his band who passed. I know some sax players don’t like his sound, but I like. He plays with energy and actually is very innovative. A genius. With Africa 70 I think his show was the best show on earth.
