{"product_id":"fela-kuti-sorrow-tears-and-blood-lp","title":"Fela Kuti - Sorrow, Tears And Blood (LP)","description":"\u003cp\u003eFela wrote the title track of this album in response to the 1976 Soweto Uprising in which thousands of South African students protested the forced teaching of Afrikaans, the colonial language of Apartheid. During the uprising and the ensuing riots, hundreds of students were killed. The song calls out killings that have gone on in the name of authority and totalitarian rule as well as the instruments of repression of colonial Africa - the police and the army. The music parallels the somber tone of the lyrics; focused and direct, and avoids the usual bombastic funk of Fela compositions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Jazz, Funk\/Soul, International\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemember, for our lowest prices, always order directly from \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(184, 49, 47);\"\u003e Joco Records\u003c\/span\u003e!\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrack Listing:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 Sorrow Tears and Blood\u003cbr\u003e2 Colonial Mentality\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Joco Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48098111914243,"sku":"Y6K225-3BDS-00","price":26.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/phishstonesproducts.myshopify.com\/products\/fela-kuti-sorrow-tears-and-blood-lp","provider":"PhishStones Products","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
