      "In the exclusive video below, McCartney talks about a great lost Fela tune that he saw performed live once but has never been able to track down on record. Clearly, it left an impression". http://music-mix.ew.com/2013/10/09/paul-mccartney-fela-kuti-video-exclusive/ Interviews with McCartney can be so damn good to see if he breaks his usual pattern. A must-see!

        video keeps freezing on me right when he's about to go and play the riff

        "I don't like you" "I'll get over it"

          Great off the cuff interview. Nice to see Paul so passionate about Fela's music. I believe the name of the song is mentioned right at the end of the interview.

            His enthusiasm for music is so contagious! I'd bet that he's going to FLOODED with copies of that record now! Jammin' riff, too!

              It's great to know that Paul has a diverse taste in the music he listens to. this shows that good music is color blind indeed.

                I found the album and downloaded it from iTunes. That will help tide me over till Tuesday. Yes, it's refreshing to hear Paul talk about something different!
