Deluxe digipack, with booklet including Fela's biography and track-by-track commentary from Afrobeat historian Chris May. Another duo of albums on MCA's recollection of Fela Kuti's various landmarks. This double album really consists of two songs — lengthy ones, as they tend to be anyway. The first half of the CD consists of a live performance from Berlin in 1979, V.I.P.. The rest of the concert that it was taken from was never released. This concert was important in its own right, as Fela was finally able to perform after being banned (officially or unofficially) from performing in a number of African nations due to his inflammatory lyrics.
