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.

As the title suggest there is plenty of drums on this private pressing blending afro funk and highlife. It holds a good handful of tracks with drum breaks that could be useful in the right hands and another handful of...

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...

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.

Only recording by Fortune Bracieux which is a real shame judging by the outcome. Excellent mix of zouk and dancefloor friendly afrobeat. Check out a snippet of Maco Maco and you will know what I am talking about. Fren...

Georges Decimus teams up with the Kassav crew for some off the radar cosmic afrobeat that builds nicely.

Soca compilation with the hits of 87 that includes a really good second record with David Rudder & Charlies Roots. My pick here is Scrunter with She Wants Me To Sing In The Party for a idea of how this record sounds. ...

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...

Mega rare Jamaican recording from Lord Lebby who played a mixture of R&B and Calypso. Original copy with lovely shine however a inaudible line over part of side two. It does not affect play.

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 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.

Stunning unplayed first pressing of this largely underrated realease on Ekapa. Sathima's vocals are beautiful and the backing by Kenny Barron, Buster Williams and Billy Higgins makes for funky setting throughout. List...

Peter Herbolzheimer production with Dieter Reith, Ack Van Rooyen, Herb Geller and other talents backing a young Mal Magaron on this funky German only release. Great version of Get Up Stand Up and Motherless Child. Stu...

This is one incredible 'wolf in sheep's clothing' record. Childrens dance music release on Fidulafon but packed with jazz, funk and afro break beat spins. Watussi Drums, Black Lady, Sunset in Ghana... Small stamp to c...

Definately up there among Byron Lee's best with classic funk material in Shaft, Have You Seen Her and the massive take on James Brown Make It Funky. Essential album for reggae and funk collectors. UK pressing on Troja...

If you are into the early ragga Kingston sound, Lord Creator is a very justifiable investment. Cover art shows Lord holding his Big Bamboo and with tracks such as Shame & Scandal, Bang Bang Lulu and Pussycat you are i...

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 ...

Surprised to find such a brilliant boogie cut on this album but Ooh La La is a bomb and would work on the dancefloor any day. Cover in shrink but record itself has got many marks and some scratches. The main track Ooh...

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

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...
