Over the course of the last year I've shared the Knitting Factory's reissues of Fela Kuti's catalog. Well, the third batch is here! In it are included:

Zombie (1976)
Upside Down (1976) / Music of Many Colours (1980)
Stalemate (1977) / Fear Not For Man (1977)
Opposite People (1977) / Sorrow, Tears and Blood (1977)
Shuffering & Shmiling (1978) / No Agreement (1977)
V.I.P. (1979) / Authority Stealing (1980)

These albums really represent Fela's most vitriolic and cutting work. As with previous batches, they are available as various bundles through the Knitting Factory website at killer prices.
