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...

Thinking back just how often I have passed on this album while diggin in Germany is a joke. Despite the later recording date there are 2-3 good cuts here and a huge groover in Chicken (Kikirikki) with potential to be ...

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...

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.

Highly recommende debut album release by British afro funk band Osibisa. The soundscape is very progressive with a authentic african vibe throughout. Second German press from 1971 in strong EX condition, one soft line...

European only disco smasher in Moving On pumped by afro funksters Osibisa. NM vinyl, cover with big ugly writing on both sides.

Handclapping afro disco 45 that was only out in Europe. Welcome Home on the flip is a laid back jazzy piece. Writing on cover.

Steelband disco all over the place on this exclusive German picture sleeve release. Kind of a weird combo with steeldrums and disco... There Will Be A Time on the flip.

Famed for the breakbeat classic Heaven & Hell but the 20th Century guys have a lot more on offer. Rare German only release.

In demand disco groover by famed Parisian afrobeat unit also known under their Lafayette Afro Rock Band. This is the recommended pressing with Passion on the flip that has huge potential on soul floors and would fit a...

Reflexion is the joint here and a smoking hot one of you like the pulsating sounds of French afro funk favorites Exile One. Killer track that builds perfectly. Stunning copy with cover and vinyl in EX condition.

Likely the rarest Them Mushrooms release, picture sleeve issue with the great Mombaza flipside. Clean EX condition vinyl, cover with tiny tear at upper seam and little creasing.

The rarest Black Blood 45 on US Mainstream. This pressing has Rastiferia on the flip which is the better cut in my books.

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!

Karibuni Kenya, a largely untaped afro disco track that has not been fully explored. Stunning EX condition bordering NM.

Killer groove by the self proclaimed calypso king Birdie, aka Mighty Sparrow. Jane on the flip is also good. Mega rare original Stateside Ghana pressing. Copy looks strong VG but plays much better.

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!

Wonderful jazzy highlife double sider on impossible to find Nigerian original released on the collectable Phillips sister label West African records. If you like authentic grooves you likely only see ones, this is a t...

Backing band of the mighty Chief Stephen Osita Osadebe with two massive ethno jazz tunes here on super rare West African Records. Decent VG copy with some distortion but still a good listen. Mega rare 45 that we will ...

Pioneering jazz unit famous for introducing congo / rumba / meregue into West Africa and consequently paving a new musical direction. This is one of the rarest Dansons avec Le Ry-Co Jazz EPs and should sit well with f...
