Music of Many ColoursThis meeting of the minds and bands of Afro funk creator Fela Anikulapo Kuti and American vibist and R&B jazz innovator Roy Ayers is a collaboration that shouldn't work on the surface. Fela's music was raw, in your face politically and socially, and musically driven by the same spirit as James Brown's JBs. At the time of this recording in 1979, Ayers had moved out of jazz entirely and become an R&B superstar firmly entrenched in the disco world.
