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.

Unique gospel recording on sulime highlife backing by the Temple Sounds. Really groovy stuff on hard to find private pressed Dutch release. Nice clean EX condition, cover with faint edge wear but really minimal.

One of many essentials by the mighty Chief Commander Ebenezer Obey and His Inter Reformers Band. Kari Batise, Ofi Kokoro Pamo, A Ti Foro Agbe Sere and many more key cuts on offer. Nigerian original

Prince Nico Mbarga with backing by the magnificent Rocafil Jazz International this is bound to turn out a blast. Nice synthesized highlife with Afufu Uwa and Cool Money my faves but all in all a nice listen. Record as...

French original from 81 with two fantastic tracks that should not be missed. Enjoy the begining of Nke Onye Asoa and feel the vibes. Tiny remains from a sticker on front cover.

Great condition Jamaican original with Byron Lee covering Bob Marley, Bohannon, Van Mccoy and many others. The sound is, as the tittle suggest, Disco Reggae with a different but worthwhile approach to the big hitters ...

Very early Kingston recording on Dynamic. I believe one of their first releases, number 004. Includes the excellent Jamaica Farewell that was comped on the Trojan Sunshine compilation a few years back and a great vers...

What a record, tons of psychedelic afro and junkanoo breaks perfectly hidden behind a cheesecake cover. Pretty hard to find item as well in solid VG+ condition. Don't sleep on this, we likely won't have another copy a...

What a brilliant comp with outstanding tracks from Africa, Brasil, Cuba, Japan and much much more. Strong selection of acts including Soledad Bravo, Safree Group, Sebastiao Tapajos. Check the hypnotic Mateso by Hukwe...

Really got to love this album with Ma Bo Ya sounding like a dead funky scat vocal piece to my ears (no disrespect to the Cameroonians here). Overall a good listen that should appeal to jazz, afro and funk fans alike. ...

Debut album release by Michael Olatunji including the famous Jin-Go-Lo-Ba lated ripped by Santana for his huge smasher Jingo. Lots of authentic drum breaks that should work wonders in the right hands. Both record and ...

Seriously funky affair by Ronnie and The Ramblers playing The Anchorage Hotel in Bahamas. Why did not hotel bands at my holiday get down like that....

What to say about this masterpiece recording that has not been said already. A must have, essential afro funk record that should be shelved in every home. Soul Makossa, Oboso, Lily, Dangwa, the list is long.... Later ...

The multi talented Cameroonian pulling weights with the floorfriendly Bokilo's Boogie and must have afro beat gem Angola. German pressing in strong EX condition, crisp looking and sounding cover and disc.

Classic afrobeat recorded in Germany during the 80s but could bounce for a mid seventies release. Very authentic sound that should sit well with both afro and jazz collectors. Original press in EX plus plus condition,...

This original promo release (pre Trojan) is not only crazy rare but a sublime recording by the king of calypso. Recorded at the Dynamic Sounds Studio and produced by the legendary Byron Lee, the Mighty Sparrow deliver...

Les Flambeaux really gets going on this album. Personal highlight has to be Evil Ways, killer dancefloor cut including open breaks. Rare UK Mushroom pressing.

Surprised this record is not hyped more. German Fred Schwartz drumming up European based US Army musicians to form this excellent 10 piece strong afro jazz rock band. Listen to the abstract Schrapnel so you know what ...
