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.

Of all the Africa Djole recordings on FMP this is the best with drum breaks for days but also some really tight spiritual pieces like O Ya Mousoda E. Hypnotic! Vinyl is solid VG+, cover with tear to front.

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...

Minty fresh copy of this classic Francis Bebey live recording on German Marifon. Not in any way as rare as his other album from this period but does not mean it is not good, actually a great pick for cheap.

Wonderful afro jazz with the title track Ekaba Kaba spanning almost 16 minutes. Expect quality guitar picking and vocal works laid down on a mesmerizing jazzy groove by the T.P.O.K. Jazz

Jazz funk from Haiti with a modern styled album release but still get it right. Listen to La Vie for a feel, it is a great album in near perfect condition.

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

Monsieur Kremer busy with his favorite profession in capturing chants, rhythms and more from countries around the world. Bit of everything on here and a great sample fodder. Stack of tribal breaks and vocal snippets. ...

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.

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.

Superb debut by the famous Nigerian grouping Great Abarake or the Abaraka Original Band Of Nigeria as they are also refered to. Groovy, danceable highlife with a touch of soukous. Copy looks VG but plays really well, ...

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.

Educational record by the Nigerian master percussionist Guem addressing different rhythm techniques. Some exceptional afro cuban breaks for you on this one. French original gatefold pressing.

Debut release from Zaka and they are joined by the famous Nigerian percussionist Guem for a great Afro Cuban record with tons of conga, tumba, bongo and percussion breaks. French original.

Brilliant Egyptian Oud with continues sample elements and then the record close up with a fantastic folky Nubian piece called Song For Tar that has a wonderful spiritual edge to it.

I am personally a huge fan of Masekela and despite this not being a rare pick there a handful of worthwhile tracks on here. Lots of jazzy / funky groovers but I opted for the boogie vibes on Run No More that is a grea...

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.

Steelband funk with a solid club track Watu Cada and a decent cover of Watermelon Man. Super clean vinyl, cover with small tear to upper right hand cover.

Rare Jairos Jiri album recorded live at the Brot Für Die Welt concert in Stuttgart. Mix of highlife, jazz and rock tunes. Pretty sure this was never commercially distributed and pressed in very small numbers.

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...
