Fela Kuti - Teacher Don't Teach Me Nonsense (LP) 

who's still loving this in 2024?

I don’t know how Nigerian will explain your death . But fela must continue to live in our heart . Who is listening in this 2020 with me ?

In 1980 I was living in Ikorodu and went to see Fela perform at the Shrine. Unforgettable. After the show (I was the only white man there) I went to Fela's house. RIP Fela, you were the greatest.

Apparently, every radio station in Ireland 🇮🇪 are tuning into fela beautiful hearted ❤

My children and I broke bread to this music the other day. Afterwards, we danced and danced. The energy was so real! We hugged and danced some more. My adult son had tears in his eyes, he felt it so strongly.

who else is grooving on this in 2020?

S/O my father for having an excellent ear for music. He passed away 2011 and that man left me with his taste. By the time I was 11 years old I knew the melodies and lyrics of this masterpiece like the back of my hand. He would often say "Son if the music isn't powerful and doesn't move your soul, why listen to it?. " Rest in Power Dad, Rest In Power legendary Aníkúlápó Kuti✊

Just a reminder, we in 2023. Still can't get enough of this masterpiece 🌻. The medicine should be sold in pharmacy.

There is no simple way to explain Fela's genius - it is an orchestra, it is choral, it is jazz, it is alluring instrumental harmony, it is mesmerising rhythmic energy, it is Afro-beat! It's qualities are unprintable. It is deep in timbre and richness. The more you listen to it the more you discover! This is why it moves the soul! It is Fela! No one else on Earth can do it. He was one of a kind!

Fela has no comparison. Been listening to him for 40+ years

Fela deserves an Oscar award. I mean he created his genre of music sustained and placed it on the global music market. ❤❤❤

I'm French. Saw him in concert in Paris in 1984.Been listening to Fela's music for 40 years now... and will never stop. It's my background music when I work late at night . Incredible musical figure and Freedom Hero. Risked many time his life. Music incarnate. He surpasses Bod Marley, Stewie Wonder, James Brown, Jimi Hendrix, Miles Davis, Coltrane and many others brought together. His music makes me feel like I had many lives before this one and that in one of those lives I danced to the sound of this magic music... It gives life to a lot of nostalgic visions but also to visions of hope and of a future in which all human beings cooperate, overcome oppression, and share the world.

I call on all Africans (blacks) all over the world to invest in the African continent. "Na black man go do am for black man". Liberate your people from the European slavery mindset that's still going on today. " No dey think say oyibo know pass Africa!

34 year old white American here and I fell in love with Fela's beautiful music and message. I've been listening since 2000 and have had many people follow the musical trail of felas. Peace and love

I AM 58 portuguese and i love this music. GOD WORKS IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS TO BLESS PEOPLE. God Bless your Soul 🌹🇵🇹🇵🇹❤️🌹

am a 16 year old kid but dammmmnnn fela dey inspire oh , he makes embrace my culture more

Had the privilege to meet Fela in Portland OR in 1991 or 92 & was mesmerized by his warm & calm energy in the green room surrounded by his ladies . He transformed into a beast on stage & looked like a giant in command .Several years later we had the honor to book Femi Kuti & met Seun Kuti at eh Wow Hall , I am blessed to meet him & his children following their dads footsteps.

I’m a 68 yr old white female and Fela just helps me cook and move around the kitchen much better!

There's only one musician like this in a lifetime: Fela; a Nigerian who transcends tribal differences and religion, his music brought everybody together.

Fela cannot die. we are in 2021! I lock myself in my room and listen to his sounds and dance like an innocent baby! it's crazy !

What makes Fela a musical genius is not the fact he created afro beat but his inimitable musical arrangement. No one does it like Fela and no one can.

THERE IS NO DEATH FOR ETERNAL WARRIORS... YOU LIVE THROUGH YOUR MUSIC AND SO DO WE!!!

Listening to Fela's lyrics, nothing has changed since his demise. Everything he sang about is still happening.

i accidentally stumbled across Fela Kuti on here. and wowowowowowow! i am blown away by how amazing his music was/is. definitely very beautiful to listen to. This is my 3rd album of his Ive listened to today. love from California.

From Côte-d’Ivoire, I had the privilège of attending FELA at a concert in ikoyi during my brief stay in Nigeria. This gentleman exudes an indisputable scenic energy. Fela will still mark for centuries the music of the demands of the people.

The wierd one, the great son of the witches of Africa, one who has death in his pouch, Mr Augustine, the chief priest, the great sage, the great philosopher, the seer, the great son of Africa, the truth sayer, the great prophet, the fearless fighter, the great son of Africa, Baba Eleniyan. (OLUFELA OLUSEGUN ANIKULAPO KUTI ABAMI EDA) Great Respect. Three GBOSA for you. GBOSA! GBOSA!! GBOSA!!!

Only a legend like Fela Anikulapo Kuti, can play an instrumental and songs in one album for one straight hours plus and the listeners will not be bored....In fact, you will be sorry whenever the music ends. Rest on in peace,, ancestor Fela.

Fela had more stones than a quarry!! Much respect to this man for his unrelenting valor!

J'ai acheté cet album quand il est sorti, en 1986, mon père et la plupart de mes ami-e-s m'ont regardé bizarrement... Mais je ne l'ai pas regretté, à ce jour, un seul instant !

To be honest Fela was the music president to me I loved even today when he is no more. I am still listening to his music today my Nigerian poet and spiritual teller .

The vibes is like wine.the older it goes the stronger it get..

Oh, how I can HEAR so many of Fela's influences in 20th and 21st-century soul, R&B, disco, rap, hot mixes, and hip hop.

A king will always be a king even in death. You taught Africa and the world through your songs how to be right and just. RIP king of afrobeat.

Who else is here in 2022?

My best friend was working in Nigeria and saw him live in 1996. He brought back an Album, 1st time I heard it, it totally blew my mind, never forgave him for seeing Fela Live. forever Jealous

FELA (For Ever Lives Afrobeat), Abami Eda, Baba7070, you will never be forgotten. A true prophet, sadly your prophecies still continue to come true in Nigeria. The people refuse to learn.

the baritone sax on Teacher Don't Teach Me Nonsense is out of this world. It stays in your heart long after the song has finished playing.

The Groove on this is utterly infectious. One day I will visit Nigeria and see his sons play this song live! I'm from Sri-Lanka :)

Fela is a greatest African soldier,the true son of the soil.A fighter in his own right,an afro music legend.The legacy lives on

Every time i listen to Fela I realise his legacy willl never die 🤘🏽Uk lockdown fav music 😀

Nigeria has always been big on Music. Then and Now!!

Fela Kuti, the undisputed King of AfroBeat of all time, your memory lives on till end of time.

Back in the day my dad blast this awesomeness in the car,home and I got addicted till today. Hope my kids carry on with it

Few days to 2024 and am still listening to this master piece like it was released just yesterday. Fela lives on

My roommate at the Obafemi Awolowo University introduced me to Fela's in 1997.

There Will be no musician like Fela again in this world and in that which is to come..His like comes once in a century and am so blessed to live to witness the amazing act of this extraordinary human being..Fela is not of this world. He's pure Genius and a music grandmaster. Abemi Eda lives on !!!

Nobody can do it like Fela kuti. His orchestra his trademark is very powerful.

One of best panafracanists. Some of his songs are like prophety. Thank you papy.

You tube made listening to Fela Kuti absolutely miserable with it's constant ads and interruptions. I could only get through 20 minutes before I couldn't take it anymore. I have been listening to Fela since I was in college way back when and one of my favorite tunes to this day is ' ZOMBIE ' !!!!!!!

There is something about the music of Fela Kuti... it often feels like the weary and restorative road home. A reminder to give body, heart, and mind a reset. Breathe. Move. Surrender. Play. Juicy. It's good medicine.

2019, I'm still listening to your prophecy and words of wisdom, You are a great legend indeed, RIP.

Many years down the line...still no foot big enough to fit your shoes...FELA is an ideology, a vision my children must know. Live ON BABA!!!

Music is the weapon for the future

Fela Kuti was on a different level as a musician! Such talent!!!

Look and Laugh by Fela is not celebrated enough, it's the utmost Superb💥👊

Its 2021, and in spite of the pandemic we still here. Long live Fela. Long live the truth.

When I was at the age of 20 Fela music was my life can't stay without his music now am 22 his music is a word of wisdom love you fela kuti can't stop playing your music

I can just close my eyes and VIBEE to this for hours and hours. Just close your eyes and listen. Nothing more

One of the great musical legends our continent has produced . RIP Fela. Keep rockin' it to dem guys up there . See you when I get there my brother .

Grande Fela, a true african poet before being an outstanding musician. A life school to be taught to children worldwide!

The legend. Fela Kuti is our school, we are learning. Izwe Lethu!! iAfrika!!!

You will never never be wiped out in the memory of people. I'm blessed to listen to your songs of wisdom

Really loving Fela Kuti's music. Great musicianship too from the band and singers. Increase the Peace.

Thank you for introducing us to West African music.

We still march to his beat 🇿🇦✌🏾👊🏿

Фела - один из величайших музыкантов всех времён! Love from Russia❤

2022 Dec 16th...God bless this day and every eye reading this ....

Baba Fela your messages hits differently today.. Great warrior.. He warned Africans because he loved them

One of Fela's sweetest compositions. Mellow and yet diverse and engaging. Always on repeat for me.

This keeps me pure African and always spiritually woke!(True Light)

Greetings, when I first heard Fela Kuti music I didn't understand but the more I was listening then I realize that he was a special person on earth, he had a special spirit that was giving to him by the universe. Long live fela Kuti. Your sista from costa Rica central America. Ache.

I regretted that Baba himself was not given the chance to become president of Nigeria. The vision he had for Africa was too much. See what's happening today. like he said years ago when these African politicians were still in diapers" WHO NO KNOW, GO KNOW " He would have made African far ahead of what it is today. No problem. We, Diaspora and pan Africans who love our continent demand greatness. It's not gonna be easy, but gradually " MY PEOPLE EYES DONE DEY OPEN AND DEM DONE DEY TAKE ACTION SMALL SMALL "

I'm so glad I found this album. Normally I'm a rap listener, but I grew to like Afrobeats elements in rap music, and it turned out to be a wonderful genre.

This guy is f-ing wild. Just mindblowing music.

Joboy and mr eazi.... Where are you guys i want to fight 😭😭😭😭 Fela performed life for 1 hr and more ... Yiu guys are giving me 2 minutes song... Why nau😭😂😂💞💞💞💞💞

I discovered this fantastic music when I lived in Brazzaville in the seventies, never stopped listening it

That was the fastest hour and twenty minutes that I recall. Now I know it takes one round of Fela's "Teacher Don't Teach Me Nonsense" LP to pull a GMC's upper control arm. First time I've heard this.. is beyond incredible.

Couldn't find music which pleased me, but when I came here I stayed. Wonderful 💃💃💃

He saw the future.but many didn't understand him...prophet of our time.

VINTAGE MUSIC NEVER GET OLD. LEGEND

Words cannot describe Fela Kuti. Indeed he's a legend.

I'm still grooving on this in 2020 and for life.

This is great music from another great African, a legend, a prophet who cannot be listened at home.

Baba 70 nor teach me nonsense felabration lives on the memory lane but music 🎧 fade not on our heart ❣ we cherish your part you played in Nigeria 🇳🇬 as a civil rights person and human rights in Africa as a continent

As a Cameroonian young man at 37, my surrounding pals find it strange that I indulge in Fela a lot. Only me know what I derive.

And they say European classical music is the height of genius. Mozart. Chopin, Beethoven show me how you’d accomplish this. Never. Musical genius comes in a rainbow colour. Go on Fêla. Tell it.

The music and its messages relevant till today. Fela lives on…

Classic! Satirical, but factual of the helplessness and corruption in Africa! Africacentrism God bless Sir Fela

I would have also went to his funeral if I was born by then..... Very good listening from South Africa❤❤❤

I can't sleep a day without a song or two. It heals me like Hippocrates's medicine.

I found the philosophy in your music. I found strength, wisdom and a clarion call. Baba 70 after you na still you. Abami eda the man who held death in his porch. Rest on. You've fought well great valour.

Timeless, absolutely timeless. Just came back to visit one of my favs and lifeline music for my heart and spirit. July 2019.

If it was possible Fela would have been one man i will bring back to life.

I’m Listening and I’m 70 and I will share

Whatever happened at 25 mins changed me forever.

Fella Kuti will always be the king of afro-beat even he is dead.

Fela Anikulapo Kuti the Abami Eda himself 👍my Dad will play all kinds of Fela’s music while growing up and i enjoyed every bit of his music, Fela is a realist , a story teller who speaks about true life experiences, a man who fought Nigerian Government with music not minding what the consequences could be , an activist to the core . His kind of music can never fade away it’s an evergreen music . I really appreciate he did made his own music which is an original piece of all kinds .

I attended FELA SHOW AT KALAKUTA In the 70s and I’m in love with all his music till now
