This is the first pressing of the album since the late 80’s and now on black vinyl following the RSD colored edition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMusic of Many Colours\u003c\/em\u003e is a joint album between \u003cstrong\u003eRoy Ayers\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eFela Kuti\u003c\/strong\u003e, recorded after a three-week tour of Nigeria’s major cities in 1979, during which \u003cstrong\u003eRoy Ayers\u003c\/strong\u003e performed as the opening act for \u003cstrong\u003eFela\u003c\/strong\u003e’s band. The two artists decided to record the album as a round-up to the tour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRoy Ayers\u003c\/strong\u003e describes the experience saying, “I met \u003cstrong\u003eFela Kuti\u003c\/strong\u003e in Nigeria in 1979, and we fell into a great relationship, good personal and music vibes, and we recorded that album together. \u003cstrong\u003eFela\u003c\/strong\u003e also came to the USA in the eighties, and we performed at NYC's Madison Square Garden. Amazingly energetic, \u003cstrong\u003eFela Kuti\u003c\/strong\u003e had a very original concept that was called Afro Beat – a genre with a very unique identity and exceptional music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne of \u003cstrong\u003eFela Kuti\u003c\/strong\u003e’s most impressive qualities was that he was undeniably a brilliant showman, 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 the other from the USA, a very exciting collaboration.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Knitting Factory","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":50485425897803,"sku":"1058221","price":22.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/4c358c0a-f380-4905-8bbe-97a2da0be647_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727599521","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/fr\/products\/music-of-many-colours","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
