OZO - DISCO TOWN Nigeria afro disco funk LP listen!

70s group of Anambra fame, SMOKING disco holy grail

Ozo - In Disco Town Skylark Nigeria 1980 SKLP 004
So the rumours are true - this is it: the grail-status Nigerian only release by UK/Nigerian band Ozo!! They are best known for their esoteric 'Anambra' hit from the 'Listen to the buddha' album which was a 1970's loft classic and has been much compiled. Ozo's style is hard to pin down as they drew inspiration from multiple genres. 
Indeed on this record they try a shot at playing reggae (side B) but on the A-side you get three heavy, HEAVY disco funk joints with IRRESISTIBLE bass, singing hooks and clavinet... Soooooo funky... 
This is one of those records that every deejay should have, yet the album only got a very limited release and unlike Ozo's other works this was never available outside of Nigeria! In addition, this is a nice & clean copy like you don't find em every day in Nigeria! So, good luck bidding...
A side: 1   Disco Town (Asaba Town)  2   Nite Of The Black Mamba  3   Your Kind Of Love 
B side: 1   Nite Of Bliss  2   Listen To The Buddha  3   Beautiful Place          
LISTEN (mp3, snippets recorded from the copy on sale): (I will add sounds in the coming day or two!)
Grading: Vinyl: VG+ heavy clean sound Sleeve: VG some pen marks on back and bits of sleeve torn, see pics
Disclaimer on condition: This record is part of a box of vinyl that has spent the past three decades in the humid and hot climate of Nigeria, and storage for many of these records typically has been less than careful. To find a mint condition Nigerian record is very hard, VG+ is often the best grade, and for the rarest copies we may be lucky to even find a VG- copy. To be sure that you're fine with the condition of the album, make sure you listen to the snippets.
Payment: Buyer is expected to pay through Paypal within seven days after auction is over, or I will have to cancel the sale and report to Ebay.
