Music Of Many Colours
More Info
‘Music Of Many Colours’ is a joint album between Roy Ayers and Fela Kuti, recorded after a three week tour of Nigeria’s major cities in 1979, during which Roy Ayers performed as the opening act for Fela’s band. The two artists decided to record the album as a round-up to the tour. Roy Ayers described the experience saying, “I met Fela Kuti in Nigeria in 1979 , and we fell into a great relationship, good personal and music vibes, and we recorded that album together. Fela also came to USA in the 80s and we performed at NYC’s Madison Square Garden. Amazingly energetic, Fela Kuti had a very original concept that was called Afrobeat - a genre with a very unique identity and exceptional music. One of Fela Kuti’s most impressive qualities was that he was undeniably a brilliant show man, as a musician and as a huge dancer as well . His African concept was truly original ... The tour was about two black men together coming together, one from Africa and other from USA, a very exciting collaboration".
