EXTREMELY hard to find but well worth the hunt! This is an album of truly excellent funky afro style rock - very very cool.
Think the asking price is crazy? I always try to be fair and reasonable when I set a price for an album - take a look at discogs and you will see the sell prices for this album are astronomical!

French ORIGINAL release - this is not one of the many reissue/repress releases in later years
Cover is in very good condition, no writing, no tears, no seam splits and all edges show very light handling wear. Yes, there is light discolouration to the front top right corner (semi circle) which is from an old retail label plus on the rear of the cover, top right hand corner is a couple of light mildew spots. Otherwise this cover is in very good condition.
New plastic inner sleeve is supplied
Vinyl is in very good - excellent condition, inspected under a white halogen light source and I cannot see any marks or scratches on each side. But a visual inspection just doesn't cut it, especially considering the value of this recording, so I then played both sides entirely and there are no issues with surface noise or clicks/pops - very very nice play and the music is just so great!
Supplied in new outer protective plastic sleeve
Tracks: Djungi, Raff, Conga, Avi-Vo, Malik, Darkest Light, Baba Hya
I strongly suspect this album will find a new home overseas and it is for this reason that I am offering this album FREE OF ALL SHIPPING COSTS (Australia Post Standard Tracked Delivery with insurance both within Australia and Internationally)
