This edition of 'Original Sufferhead' is a major event. With the release of 'Box Set #5', and now on this reissue, the title track of this magnificent album is presented in its full-length, 25 minutes 24 seconds glory. While preparing the master disc for the box set, our engineer Jedi, Colin Young, discovered four minutes of 'lost' material on the B-side of the original pressing, including a superb keyboard solo by Fela. This had been omitted from subsequent reissues. The restored version used here starts and finishes with Fela's keyboard work, a typically venturesome blend of futurism and visceralism. 'Original Sufferhead' was the first album Fela released under Egypt 80's name (he had disbanded Afrika 70 in 1979).
