Description

UP FOR AUCTION IS AN ORIGINAL PRESSING OF THE HAR YOU PERCUSSION GROUP "Sounds Of The Ghetto Youth" LP on ESP-Disk (STEREO 1067). The condition of the cover is (Near Mint), the condition of the vinyl is also (Near Mint). This super-rare legendary Latin Funk release originally came out on ESP circa 1969/1970. Although the title says Percussion Group, this is actually a Latin Soul group led by master conga player Montego Joe as part of the Harlem Youth program of the 60's. This is one of the great Latin releases of all-time! Includes the monster tracks "Welcome to the Party," "Feed Me Good," and "Oua-Train" Montego Joe wrote two of the tunes as well as writing the "liner notes" He became involved with "Harlem Youth Opportunities, Unlimited" (Haryou Act.) in 1965, and was the groups 'mentor' for many years. There are some 11 regular members all between the ages of 16 -19, as well as 4 others who sat-in as the 'horn' section. Tracks Are : Feed Me Good , Barrets Bag , Ngoma , Oua-Train , Welcome To The Party , Santa Cruz , and Tico. This is the original ESP release, not the re-issue of the ORO - 5 press on Ubiquity Records. The address shown on the label is 290 West End Ave, NY, NY 10023, the business address of ESP in the early 1970's. Here's your chance to own an insanely Rare Sought After AFRO LATIN FUNK Original in amazing condition. SERIOUS BIDDERS ONLY. NO PAYPAL. CLEANED ON A VPI RECORD CLEANER. Good luck.
