Coffin For Head Of State / Unknown Soldier

Power Show is the final batch of Fela CD re-releases. It covers the '80s and early '90s when Fela's band changed from Africa '70 to the larger Egypt '80. It was during this era that Fela consistently toured internationally bringing Afrobeat to the world. Fela's compositions grew more complex, songs longer but no less funky. Many Fela fans feel this era to hold some of his crowning achievements like the masterfully produced Teacher Don't Teach Me Nonsense or the political powerhouse that is I.T.T. Fela's political statements also began to veer beyond Africa to the U.N. as on Beasts of No Nation.!
