All chilled and laidback, mainly accapella tracks. I have a soft spot for the tune Kneeling Down Inside The Gate. Fascinating to explore the roots of rhythm & blues. Copy has got a sizeable stamp on label and cover, p...

Second and best part of the Drums of Africa series compiling eight different afro drum styles from Kenya. Writing on cover.

Always had a soft spot for this soca disco release with its fine blend of funk and cosmic africa. Disco Reggae always sounds good in my ears. Nothing rare here but good! US original with cut corner, tiny tear and very...

Mainly an all afrobeat affair, two tracks stand out, the disco fun on Karibuni Kenya and heavy drum driven Kenya Safari. Both are great. Stunning EX+ copy that could easily pass for NM.

What an excellent collaboration, Birk, Machito and Chico. The 15 min of Afro Cuban experimental jazz on Oro Incienso Y Mirra is a incredible piece of music. German pressing in stunning condition.

Interesting field recordings from Ghana, Mali, Senegal, Nigeria and much more. A few traditional sounding tracks on here but also some brilliant guitar driven Mali grooves and folky afro beat from Ghana and Nigeria. C...

Tribal afro monster from 1981 that sounds well ahead of time. A popular spin among disco, breakbeat and afrobeat DJs. UK original in spotless condition.

Hugh Masekela producton with the South African first lady on fine form and backed by Masekela, William Salter and James Cleveland. Second pressing from 1971 with alternate cover art that I prefer to the original. Weak...

Long deleted UK re-issue of this fine guitar driven highlife / afrobeat release by Zani Diabate. Listen to my the title track, Super Djata, for an idea of what to expect. Vinyl is strongest EX shape borderline NM, sma...

Essential and highly recommended Euro only funk bomb with covers of Funky Stuff, Shaft and Hey Joe. Please note that this copy is very worn, with lots of marks and plays with noice throughout. It is the original 1st p...

Inflacion still sounds so fresh, it is close to impossible to sit down while listening to the Haitian masters on top form. Weak VG+ copy that plays really well, only light distortion between tracks.

Monsieur Kremer busy with his favorite profession in capturing chants, rhythms and more from countries around the world. Bit of everything on here and a great sample fodder. Stack of tribal breaks and vocal snippets. ...

French Afro percussion group with their second studio album. Holds some fantastic percussion solos and batucada grooves well worth mixing with. Some fusion elements in Salsa Sept Club and Matum Jan. Spotless condition.

The king of Ju Ju on a recording from 83 with huge potential. Synchro Feelings Ilako is a great mid-tempo afrobeat spin. UK original in near perfect condition.

British afrobeat funksters that never got much credit for their many recordings. Maybe as they are wrongly defined an afrobeat band but in reality more of disco / funk unit. Check Keep On Trying, it sounds pretty fres...

Loud pumpin calypso on seldom seen album release by the self declaired Queen of Calypso. My Carib Man is good but listen to the fast and furious Soca Merengue. Strongest EX++ condition.

Debut release from Zaka and they are joined by the famous Nigerian percussionist Guem for a great Afro Cuban record with tons of conga, tumba, bongo and percussion breaks. French original.

Excellent Haitian Compas release with the smashing Accolade La Rive that sounds heavy played out loud. Stunning near mint condition with cover in shrink.

If you like the type african music played at street corners of the townships in South Africa this is the real deal. Nothing for the clubs here but just a great record exploring the roots of afrobeat, ju ju, hi life...

Brilliant jazzy afro funk from the British 5 piece unit with Fire, Kotoku and We Want To Know (Mo) the best three tracks. Lovely gatefold cover art. UK 1st pressing in EX condition, a few very soft lines.
