Ahh Fela, man. What a guy. Amazing that this collab happened at all. 100 fuck the Nigerian army's off 10. I usually get mad about artists being over-represented but there should be 10 Fela albums on this list.

Watch the Finding Fela documentary.

Listening on the wax, shame the Tony Allen drum solo isn't on there, goes hard as heck. Double tease when Fela introduces the drummers at the end.

Joanie jorp jorp.

Your cool mother-in-law's favourite lady.

Wish I liked this more than I do. Me & Bobbie McGee is a tune.

Trailblazing in her time etc etc.

Hell yeah, best debut ever recorded in a kitchen if my memory serves me right.

Would always way rather listen to Bert than Nick Drake. Songwriting and his voice simply has a bit more of the old verisimilitude or some such.

Nothing like spending a grey day listening to Bert & Loudoun Wainwright III to get the heart pumping.

First album I've actually listened to in a while (too familiar with everything since). Gruff Rhys rules. John Cale featuring is an instant 20 cool points.

Just on the arsty enough side of indie rock for me. 10 cymrus
