Today's album for One Album A Day - 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die is "Live!" from Fela Ransome-Kuti and The Africa '70 with Ginger Baker. It's pure funk, and not at all something I expected. I didn't know what to expect, actually. I'd never heard of this album before, but already I agree with the editorial staff of 1001 Albums - it is a must-hear.
