180 gram vinyl LP pressing. Afrodisiac was recorded at EMI's Abbey Road studios in London. The best known song on 1973's Afrodisiac is "Jeun Ko Ku," a satire about gluttony and Fela's first major hit in West Africa. In Broken English, the title means "chop and quench," which, in turn, means "eat and die" in Standard English. Lyrically, the standout track is the closing "Je'Nwi Temi" ("don't gag me"), a critique of the Nigerian political/military establishment and a defense of free speech. Fela vows that he will always tell it like it is, no matter what. This proved to be prophetic stuff, given the police and army assaults, intended to silence him, which were just around the corner. "Alu Jon Jonki Jon" draws on the interaction between animals and humans that is part of Yoruba mythology, in a tale about a dog who betrays his friends. Like many of Fela's lyrics of the period, the lyric employs parable and metaphor to encourage ethical conduct in everyday life. In "Eko Ile," Fela sings that there is no place like home (Eko was the pre-colonial name of Lagos).

Thorough history
Format: Hardcover
Levy provides a masterful history of American capitalism. His work is detailed and brilliantly written.
You should buy this book for its last section: the age of chaos. Here Levy details the US economy since Reagan and identifies critical trends and questions we all need to address.
This is not a book for a casual reader, each chapter is hard work. However, the rewards more than outweigh the effort.

An interesting look at capitalism in the US
Format: Hardcover
Seller:
Product arrived on time in good condition. No issues with the seller at all!
Book:
This is a pretty dense history of the US through the lense of capitalism. There are quite a few editing errors (typos, incorrect quotation formatting, etc) that are speed bumps to the flow of this book but don’t ruin the reading experience.
There are also a few moments where a subjective claim is made using a historical event as a backdrop, but the claim isn’t elaborated on as well as it could be. I chalk this up to the focus of the book being on history and not economics, but I do think if a claim is made it would be interesting to have more data as to why the claim was made.
