The only really good Them Mushrooms Band 45 with Mombasa a brilliant midtempo groover. Kenya Hakuna Matata on the flip. Near perfect condition in original Phonogram Nairobi company sleeve. Nice one!

At least 3 quality tracks on here with AIE, Jesus Wa-Basungu and Avenue Louise all being top spins, particularly the latter downbeat funk works great. Pen cross on front cover.

Fantastic album packed with breaks. Mid tempo to the extremely fast percussion battles. Pretty hard to find item with near perfect vinyl, cover has got a tear on both front and back.

Top condition Jamiacan steel drum album with the Rising Sun covering Watermellon Man, Fire In You Wire and really get to shine on their own compositions like Governors Ball and Sandra. NM cover and wax. Rare in this c...

King Kobra and The Venoms showcasing a string of funky calypso and limbo joints. I personally liked Keep Your Head Low and BWI Express. Record with some marks, plays well, cover has tear.

Essential album by one of the funkiest african groups to record in France. Stack sof club anthems on here including Rester A L'Ecole and Dominica Strut. Some water damage to cover, mainly affecting the back.

Another killer album by famous Nigerian percusionist Guem. You know the deal when Guem gets busy, it is back to back percussion breaks. French original with only the lightest of scuffs.

Forget about traditional steel drum action here, this is more of a roots / rocksteady album and a really good one. Add to that a spotless EX++ copy and this is a real winner.

Mighty Pelay debut with a number of upbeat calypso groovers like Frenchie, Mr. Panman or My Calypso Dance. Carnival season in Barbados...

Great double sider with two thrilling afro funk spins. US pressing in Atlantic company sleeve. Soft scuffs only, plays almost EX. Pen marks on label.

If not familiar with Haiti's famous Compas unit you are in for a treat. Party time vibes all day every day and surely the sun will be coming out. Strong EX vinyl grade, cover has one bent corner and stoarge print on f...

Very much slept on Bahamas soul groover hidden as last track on this calypso recording. King Eric covering big hitters like Yelow Bird and Nassua Market but round things up with the brilliant Lonely For My Baby. Kille...

Mega rare afro beat / highlife double sider arranged by Manu Dibango on the collectable ASL label out of Kenya. Superficial lines not affecting play. Comes in original ASL company sleeve. RARE!

Lengendary Kenyan 'twist' performer with two rare slices of Swahili sung guitar groove. Seldom seen Africana Microgroove pressing. Softest marks only.

Music recorded by Keita Fodeba while touring Europe and Africa with his famous African Theatre of Keita Fodeba. No clubby stuff here but an enjoyable listen throughout. Check the Brazzaville Congo styled Kalakato. Dis...

Debut release by the Senegalese heavy hitters is a must in my eyes/ears. Killer mix of funk, deep drumming and quality afrobeat. French original in solid EX condition with sticker residue on front cover.

La Kay is a stomping Haitian funk groove with lots of potential. I really like the unusual carnival styled Entioutioute as well. Cover has a circle and small sticker residue on front.

Oboe Addy and Mustapha Tettey Addy getting down to business at the African Centre in London. Folky yet funky affair released on Mike Steyn's Targent Records.

The master showcasing his talents with drums and percussion in all forms and shapes. Great pick for fans of percussive spiritualism and turntabilst with a need for beats. Flawless EX copy, could pass for near mint.

Flip this over and enjoy a brilliant Euro only funk 45. Hey Dakar sounds like S.O.U.L. with a superbly funky flute and grooving bass. Cover with creasing, wax with a few scuffs but Hey Dakar plays excellent. VG(+) con...
