Knitting Factory Records is proud to release the second of the long-awaited vinyl reissues from the FELA KUTI catalog. This is the second in a series of curated Vinyl Box sets. These six albums were chosen by frequent Fela collaborator, Ginger Baker.
This set has been opened but never played -- and is rapidly going out of print. Get this collectors item now here.
