About This Item
- Details
- Genre: Foreign
- Description: Limited orange colored vinyl LP pressing. Excuse-O isn't just a showcase of Fela's ability to build a groove that could fill a full LP side; it's a masterclass in personal and political criticism wrapped in two exceptional extended grooves. The title track A-side is a jittery rhythm where Fela sings of the many small agitating things that he comes across that could lead to an argument, or if unchecked, escalate to a fistfight; the track culminates in his annoyance of finding another man chatting up a woman he just went to buy a drink for. The B-side is a denunciation of Nigerians' cultural inferiority complex and how the use of Inchproper EnglishInch language affected all aspects of one's life. This pointed commentary on post-colonial life is set in a smoother groove with call-and-response vocals driving the message home. This album marks the moment he moved away from singing exclusively in Yoruba and began to sing more in Pidgin, or as he called it InchBroken English,Inch to widen the appeal of his music. This edition is pressed on Monkey Kola Orange (opaque orange) vinyl. Album Tracks 1. Excuse-O 1. Mr Gramaticalagylisation-Alism Is the Boss

Double vinyl LP pressing. Zooropa is the eighth studio album by U2. Produced by Flood, Brian Eno, and The Edge, it was released on 5 July 1993 on Island Records. Inspired by the band's experiences on the Zoo TV Tour, Zooropa expanded on many of the tour's themes of technology and media oversaturation. The record was a continuation of the group's experimentation with alternative rock, electronic dance music, and electronic sound effects that began with their previous album, Achtung Baby, in 1991. U2 began writing and recording Zooropa in Dublin in February 1993, during a six-month break between legs of the Zoo TV Tour. The record was originally intended as an EP to promote the Zooropa leg of the tour that was to begin in May 1993, but during the sessions, the group decided to extend the record to a full-length album. Album Tracks 1. Zooropa 2. Babyface 3. Numb 1. Lemon 2. Stay (Faraway, So Close!) 3. Daddy's Gonna Pay for Your Crashed Car 1. Some Days Are Better Than Others 2. The First Time 3. Dirty Day 4. The Wanderer / the Mix Alert Siren 1. Lemon 2. Numb
