Angélique Kidjo’s Remain in Light

When the Talking Heads dropped Remain in Light in 1980, no one had heard anything like it. Heavily influenced by Fela Kuti, the album was a punk rock take on Afrobeat, funk and world-music. That groundbreaking record getd a brand new sound when Kidjo performs it in its entirety, putting her own West African spin on the Heads’ reinterpretation of West African music. Things are about to get meta.
