That mobile20 code that was going around last week MIGHT still work for this if you haven't used it yet. I tried and it gave me a "you already used this code" error.

it does work. brought it down to $99 shipped for me.

Is this new? I think this is new.

This album fucks, btw. VMP or Mr. Bongo, whatever your pref. It's a banger.

I just dunno if it's worth only getting like half of these tracks that are supposed to be full album length

would heavily recommend you stream the album online -- this album is often found under this title, "best of the black president" or also "best best of the black president". There's also "best of the black president 2". And then maybe stream the full album versions of some of the songs, to see how you feel about 'em. like shuffering and shmiling goes from 21 minutes on the album to 12 minutes on the edit here, which is still pretty generous IMO. all the edits are pretty similar, at least on the CD version. Fela's albums tended to be either 1 long 30+ minute song, split into 2 parts, one per side, or they were 2 songs, roughly 15-20 minutes each. very rarely he would do a 20 minute on side A, and side B would be 2 "shorter" songs. the songs themselves have long solo or vamp sections and mostly these are what have been cut out. Even with these cuts, the 2CD comp is definitely missing some pretty important material, although I think it does cover the most necessary parts of his work (even if you do miss out on "trouble sleep yanga wake am" from Roforofo Fight.)

I mean that's a solid box set. And price isn't completely insane.

It can be yours in 6 to 8 months.

Yeah, this one is fun. I have an OG. Glad it’s getting reissued though.

No "Egbe Mi O"?

Boooooooooooooo

No "Egbe Mi O"?

Boooooooooooooo

To be fair, he’s got too many great songs to put on one “greatest hits” type box. Femi chose these apparently

Grab Em By the Pizza, Please!

When you're famous they let you curate it. You can curate anything.

Low stock on this one already. Only 300 VMP pressings.

I’ve been massively enjoying the Off Air bundle VMP sent me by mistake. The Jenny Owen Youngs is a firm fave from the set but they’re all pretty great.

I love the Oh No one

I’m kinda tempted to pick up what they have from the first set two. Any clangers in there or are they similarly brill.

Yeah. Dr No is ace. But to file them under Off Air or the individual artists?

I filed under OffAir. I have Lullabyes for the Damned and the music for water one and thought they were enjoyable! Haven’t listened to them in a bit though. Kinda surprised these didnt sell better with only 300 copies

$49 for a single LP and somehow it’s still the cheapest variant out there. This fucking hobby, man.

This is in a crazy package which isn’t clear on any of the listings (although to be honest, most of them are really long and I haven’t bothered reading them all). It’s got some kind of acetate window that was nigh impossible to replicate.
