Reissue of the classic late 70s album ‘No Discrimination’! This album marks an important turning point in Tony Allen’s musical life; he had recently left Fela Kuti’s band, which was clearly an emotional yet necessary change as Allen sings of love and brotherhood throughout his fourth solo album. ‘No Discrimination’, both in composition and sound, is a blueprint for the future of Afrobeat, decades ahead of its time. The songs are a mixture of old and new – fusing the classic Afrobeat compositional style with modern production and ideas. Classic tunes like the title track and ‘Ariya’ pushed boundaries for what Afrobeat could be, which a wave of Afrobeat bands would pick up on decades later.
