ALL SCHOOLS JAM

Soul Sides just posted another cover of Fela Kuti's "Let's Start," so, of course, I had my cue to gather up a bunch of Afrobeat type stuff that's been waiting in the wings, and repost some that you may have missed.  I love this stuff.  It flat out jams.  I don't know what it is, but you either dig it or you don't, depending on what your appetite is for non-rock hot shit jams.
 

Visit the blogs that posted these, particularly American Athlete. They stopped posting there in November, so their links may be expired if you wait.  There's a lot of great stuff.  Don't veg.
