The high profile Arena strand Biyi Bandele-directed documentary Fela Kuti: Father of Afrobeat is on BBC 2 tonight at 9.30pm. In a year during which Tony Allen died, regardless of such a massive blow as his passing given Allen's iconic status as a fellow pioneer with Kuti of the style, Afrobeat remains one of the key influences on new UK jazz acts such as Kokoroko and Moses Boyd and going back even further to the work of London Afrobeat Collective and Soothsayers. Unseen archive and contributions from Fela’s children, wives, friends and fans are included in the film. Watch
