prolly because it was only posted as "World Music" if someone that week wasnt looking for the Pharoahs, prolly not many folks ran across that auction. But thanks to your post, all the lurkers will now look for it and I bet the next one up for auction goes back to the usual price. gee, thanks a lot.

Yikes. I've been after this for a while. Story/deal for headz plaese
i've had a mint extra in a sale pile for a while jonny if you need it.


Sooks- that Saitana is a South African artist- kind of a bluesy rock grind thing... trippy effects on the vocals- slow groove- definitely stoner music and cool.

I know the Freddie McKay and the Cedric Brooks LP's are dope. The Cheif thing is likely African Highlife. The Max Romeo is PErry and is farily good in it's own right. The Bembeya is alright with one funkyish tune on the last track of one side (I have 2 unsleeved if anyone wants one). Sweet Talks is African and discoey if I can remember correctly.

Don't know the others. I'm sure Ari can help you out.

ahah sorry mang! btw a VG+ unsealed copy went for around $40 over xmas. My sniping dealie malfunctioned while I was on vacation, otherwise I would have gotten that. (I was pissed at the time) So maybe the "good price" for it is going down.

Chief Twins Seven Seven was a really eclectic nigerian artist- had one on Makossa which I highly recommend- used to be able to catch it for cheap but just saw one go for $50+. Never even heard of this one- it's pretty freaked out funky juju style- but heavier on the funk- w/ strong psych overtones.

The Sweet Talks is a straight highlife LP- but they're one of the greatest 70's ghanian hi-lifebands in my opinion. i know you got the one w/ them on the boat kevin- need it.

Super Eagles is a gambian group- mostly straight rumba, a pachanga tune, but a couple soul tunes- one w/ fuzz guitar and recently comped on that african psych comp. They later become a group called Ifang Bondi who put out a couple good albums.

That Tito Puente is the bomb- don't sleep.... from '56 or '58 - deep groove Tico and hard hitting as hell.

AfroCombo is probably a colombian group as there seems to be a couple Cumbia tunes on there. Some killer salsa cuts and the opening cut El Huevo is nice dancefloor boogaloo.

Verckys w/ Orchestra Veve- one of the killer congolese orchestras. Such amazing stuff- mostly rhumbas but the wild guitars will shatter your ears.

Bembeya Jazz- the legendary guinean orchestra headed by guitar maestro Sekou "diamond fingers" Diabate- I'd say their stuff goes beyond OK if you can get into manding style- recording is a bit murky at times- but the music shines through.

I'll try to post some more pics tonight.
 
I had to do Jury Duty today, which totally sucked, had to drive 1/2 hour to another county at 8AM, spent almost 7 hours in a small windowless room with 20 other miserable people, etc...but we got an hour lunch break, and I switched on the record radar and started walking around the unknown neighborhod...found a Salvation Army with 50 cent records (records for 50 cents, not "Candy Shop!")...nothing great enough to make the awful day worth it, but a few 12" of soul de la moderne':

Rene & Angela, "I'll Be Good"
& "You Don't Have To Cry"
both sealed pic sleeve 12" with extended & instros...

Mark IV, "You've Got To Change It"
nice 1989 soulful house on Tuff City w/Patrick Adams prod, mint WLP...best thing is, Tuff City sent it out in a Spoonie Gee "Godfather of Rap" jacket with a center hole cut into it..they must have had a bunch of leftovers and used them as promo covers!

Soul Rebellion, "Simple Rhythm"
cool 1990 Arthur Baker acid house/garage on Cardiac, with 7 mixes...uses "Papa Was a Rolling Stone" bassline, pretty dope although the "rapping" is a little too 1990 house rap...

not bad for $2...

Hey K,
Congo's LP with his big head on it is cool, but I still have debated back and forth about picking it up. I got a cheapie reggae LP by a dude named "Kwame" the other day, heard it? Prolly common, major label from '80, but thick basslines and cool.
Lemme know
Peace
