WARNING FOR US BUYERS : You will find the shipping cost below (20 US $ for 3 lp's / 8 US $ for 3 singles). Due to problems with "Turbo Lister", I was forced to indicated 4 US$ for the shipping cost...I'm sorry for that.

Contains the amazing, incredible, fantastic super funky track "kelen ati len" !!! A pure jewel, one of the best afro-funk tune ever made !!! JB's rumble in the Jungle, the godfather in Africa...Contagious funky fever, you are warned, there is no vaccine !!!

Record = Side A : VG to VG++ (light surface scuffs and traces, plays with light to very crackles. 2 little scuffs more serious with few light clicks at the beginning of A3. "Kelen ati len" plays with few very light crackles background, but there is one little scuff at the first part with 12 light clicks, and an other very little scuff with 5 or 6 light clicks. It's absolutely not serious, but enought to grade this side with VG+. The whole side plays near VG++, but "kelen ati len" should be grade VG to VG+... Hand writing on label) Side B : VG+ to VG++ (light surface scuffs and traces, plays with a very light surface noise/ light to very light crackles background, few very light clicks on B4, hand writing on label)

Cover = VG+ to VG++ (still protected, corners and slices worn, right slice slightly worn, hand writing)

VG++ (VERY GOOD++) : More surface marks, minor flaws,  or cover wear, minor edge.
