Fela Kuti & Africa 70 - "Expensive Shit"

Fela Kuti is a legendary Nigerian musician/band-leader/multi-instrumentalist/political activist. With his band Africa 70 he defined Afrobeat music, a fusion of funk, African rhythms, jazz, and psychedelia. In listening to this track, he also formed the basis for house music with the piano stabs and groovy beats. To think this was created in 1975 boggles the mind. Ride da riddim man!
