Trippy Chat

This week Knitting Factory records announced that they will be remastering Fela's entire catalog, including his Koola Lobitos stuff:

This is great news for our ears, bad news for our wallets!

I'd love to know the release schedule, and what songs are planned for each CD.

Right now we only know of one release:

The Best Of The Black President (2009-10-27) -- The deluxe edition will be the same as the original issue, but with a bonus DVD of documentary and live footage.

Anyone know anything else?

The next 7 CDs are called "Na Poi" and are described here:

http://www.fela.net/na-poi.php

CDs include:
* Alagbon Close/Why Black Man Dey Suffer
* Expensive Shit/He Miss Road
* Monkey Banana/ Excuse O
* Everything Scatter/Noise For Vendor Mouth
* Ikoyi Blindness/Kalakuta Show
* JJD/Unnecessary Begging
* Yellow Fever/Na Poi

Downloads are $40
CDs are $60
Deluxe is $80; looks like it simply adds a T-shirt

I still don't know if there are any sonic differences between the reissues and the previous CDs.

Anyone know if the Knitting Factory CDs sound better than the Wrasse ones?
