In my teens and twenties, I did not appreciate this track until now in my late years. How perspectives and appreciation changes of time. This is one of the most soulful and spiritual sounds. It is sad, mysterious, intriguing, hypnotic and uplifting all at the same time. Tears, smiles, nostalgia etc rolls through. I like the girls dancers. Gentle, cool, collected and groovy.

Great respect sir. I can't hold my comment. This is a legend we killed in this country for selfish reasons and lack of insight of his grifting, ingenious characteristics and blessings to this nation. Africans, especially Nigerians don't appreciate our own thing. There can never be two Felas till eternity. REST IN PEACE BABA. WE LOVE, CELEBRATE AND MISS YOU.

[@limatglobaltemp7181]

Who killed him? He passed through some trials like every social critic does. But nobody killed him. He was loved, followed, admired and appreciated by most nigerians. He died like most artistic genius who lived weird and unconventional lives. So the question of anybody killing him does not arise. He died of AIDS, according to his elder brother Prof Olikoye, which was not too strange given his lifestyle.
