Spotless copy of this crackin Caribbean compilation. Varied in style from Cumbia to Calypso but definately on point. Check Vaccines Petionville from Haiti on Ra Ra No 2. Stunning shape with cover still in shrink. Rare...

Toumani Diabate plays the West African 21 string harp called the Kora and he does it so well. The entire album is acoustic but has a subtle funkyness throughout. Check a snippet Konkoba to catch my drift. Rare and rec...

Amazing recording by the Senegalese master that you can just sit back and enjoy from start to finish. Hypnotic and melodic from first to last groove. A firm recommendation in flawless shape.

Led by Alain Kounkou the Soukous Masters take off nicely and if your dig the style this is a killer album. Check Dansez for a listen to where this record is going. French only original with wax in lovely EX++ conditio...

Take-off time with Jean Papy and the Kass Kass group. Gotta love Soukous breaks, actually surprised they are not added in mixes of other styles more often. Check the pumping intro of Ndedelio. Rare private press in fl...

Essential steel drum breakbeat recording with Calypso Rock and Funky Abbey Road both classic b-boy anthems. UK Polydor pressing in lovely shape, a conservative EX grade for both vinyl and cover, they could pass for NM.

Alabama born Donnie Fritts on a country funk tip that has turned a really hard find. Recently comped on Country Funk II by the fine folks at Light In The Attic. Different to the promo this has Watcha Gonna Do also pro...

Floorpacking modern soul by Carl Douglas proving that he could do more than Kung Fu disco funk. Popular and rare UK original in Pye company sleeve. EX plus condition not far off NM.

In demand funk forty five with Dennis Coffey's celebrated take of Lalo Schifrin's Enter The Dragon theme. US original Sussex that is a pretty hard find nowadays. One faint pen mark on label, vinyl with great shine and...

Superb Northern Soul groove by Robbie Mitchell & Darryl Patterson with a fat slice of funkyness, particularly on No One Can Do The Things You Do. Fliside a deep hurting soul ballad. Disc is pretty clean with only a fa...

Super smooth stuff by this fine Los Angeles group spearheaded by Richard Page and Steve George, joined by a handful of the finest Westcoast session heads. A solid listen from start to finish but start with a little hi...

One of the very best Westcoast albums we have crossed with of recent (thx to DaM-FunK for putting us unto this). It practically never shows up on vinyl despite a formal Columbia release so has taken forever to track d...

Lovely crossover affair by Steamhammer lead Kieran White. His only solo recording with Cajun Moon a superb downbeat folk funk nugget with drumbreak intro. Rare item with vinyl in immaculate condition, cover with stick...

Old news that Frank Farian borrowed this über cool Mohammed Hanesh track for his Boney M smash. Perfect DJ surprise tune to drop out. Personally I really dig the instrumental side but both works great (check youtube f...

Beautiful 3 LP box set with thick picture / text booklet included celebrating Samba in Brazil. Musically lots of goodies here with highlight in covers by Jorge Ben, Baden Powell and Martinho Da Vila. All records in fl...

Rare Japanese release with the Brazilian crooner on a live tip introducing Tango, Folk and two fine Bossa groovers. High end RCA pressing in lovely shape, cover has small sticker residue on front.

Rare Serie Coletanea compilation by Paulo Diniz including the folky yet funky Piri Piri and soulful Bahia Comigo that could be dropped out on a happy crowd. Faint surface lines but playback is solid EX, cover with mil...

Amazing Brasilian jazz recorded in the famous MPS Schwarzwald studios. Highest recommendation. All is goood on here but start with the little wonder of Parque Laje. Stunning copy with fresh NM vinyl, cover has lightes...

Great Brazilian tinged Euro Jazz with scat vocals and instrumentals. Girl From Ipanema and Saudade De Bahia are both good but the studio grouping really shines on their covers of A Taste Of Honey and A Hard Days Night...

Rarest Os Batuqueiro album release with a solid set of vocal sambas. Love the joyful Idioma Esquisito and hard hitting Voce Nao Passa De Uma. Brazilian original with soft scuffs and the odd mark.
