Classic un released tune...Always happy when Fela played this in shrine..mostly on a Friday night. Once you heard gba gba from the orisha drum. it was time to light your manya and listen to music of fucking.
😂😂😂😂😂 old school oooooh
From kirikiri to maiduguri for nite.. na him ah come ask my cell mate alhaji buka..
Him say na di muzik, wen den dey play, wen dem wan dash woman to man, for nite.. muzik of fucking, muzik of the relaxed mind.. ASBOP ✊🏾😎
Listened to this song a lot, and bro - nice work with the cleaning. I will say though - the Live! atmosphere gives it a certain energy still. Awesome sketch too
Best music ever made by man
Thumbs up brother, sounds as good and clean as can be, Asbop and Bbc are the the best of the unreleased gems composed by Fela in my opinion.
I love BBC... heavy message to African leaders
Yeah , great sound production .
@@louisotieno4712 confused African leaders , grave diggers of their own culture and with no clue beyond the superficial of how western thought and culture developed and the insidious nature of their hegemony this has helped birth.
Yes good old days' I am one of the yabbis guys by the stage side Fela use to call our corner the IBBs international International busy bodies, what a man he was we all miss him for sure rest well eleniyan .......
M.A.S.S is up there too!
The addition of the gbedu drum(8 foot log drum) was a great addition to Fela's music. I don't know if it was done to amplify the rhythmic component of his music jn reaction to the loss of Tony Allen, but i love it
Kola was the guy playing the gbedu
Kola was the guy playing the gbedu
Fela's music made a stylistic shift in the late 80s and early 90s, either with his recorded or unrecorded songs. The addition of the giant conga drums was partly indicative of this. As a matter of fact, he called this music of his "African Classical Music". Tony Allen had long left the band at this time.
@@olakunleajagbe1420 That's true. but on recordings such as authority stealing, ITT, Power show, Look and Laugh, Just Like That, the drummer is clearly playing or attempting to play Tony Allenesque lines. And Just Like that was a late 80s recording, even though it was performed throughout the early 80s. When you have a drummer as gifted as Tony, it must be difficult to adjust to drummers of lesser talent. I mean Fela's early 80s records from Authority Stealing to Army Arrangement and Live in Amsterdam all sound like they're attempting to recapture Tony's lines but with inferior drummers
Amazing job mate, new subscriber
Mi brother over bam de worry U ❤❤❤❤

My favourite song
You just gained a subscriber. This is something I wanted to do for a long time. Just that I don't have the skills lol

Great job Buddy! Do CRFJJ for us abeg. 🤗🤗🤗
Someone promised to send me their live copies of CRJJ and CSC for me to edit, but over half a year later, I've received nothing.
@@tnfmusiclab3389 damn
Do you have Fela’s CSAS?
Can you please get C.O.P (Country Of Pain)?
N.N.G (Nigerian Natural Grass)?
Lol which one be NNG o?
ASBOP 🤣👊🏿✊🏾
Can you do Government of Crooks?
I don't think it would be much different from the one already on CZcams. Except you insist, and maybe I can try to tweak the vocals, do noise reduction or something. I don't know man HAHA. I think I'll try B.B.C next
@@tnfmusiclab3389 please it would be incredible.. I need that song in my life right now
@@calebgrimah2222 somehow I ended up doing BBC and I did not enjoy the experience at all. Don't worry GOC next. (Still, don't expect much)
@@tnfmusiclab3389 Still awesome, Please take as much time as you want , GOC in my opinion is one of his best sounds..Just too bad it wasn't recorded..
@@calebgrimah2222 I'll try to see how much editing I can do to the only GOC copy on CZcams. I thought BBC was nerve-racking, GOC sounds terrible. Looking forward to it lol
