Description
Thick slice of super rare Funk in pretty awesome condition......cover too has no issues....bit of a grey semi circle on front cover (ringwear?) which is visible in photo, oh and its just a shadow on back cover corner.
So..... as I said the record itself is in super condition.....forgive the reflection of my windows but i figured bright daylight was the best way to show it, one or two light surface marks but nothing sinister at all and nothing which can be felt. In fact I'm not sure it's had much play at all and there are no noticeable marks on the label.
It has been in storage for many years.
I know vinyl grading is a bit of a minefield so all I will say is that if you buy it and have any qualms whatsoever i will take it back for a full (no haggling post purchase ;-) )no quibble refund though I honestly see nothing to be unhappy about.
I have the wherewithal to pack properly (record separate, hard card envelope etc) so no worries there.
Any questions please feel free to ask and if your buying from abroad then please contact me first to clarify postage terms.
anyways here's a bit of info on the all important music....
Body Music, Afro Funk’s 1975 LP, was recorded and released in London, England. The band was comprised mostly of West-African expatriates residing there. At the time, the city was host to a vibrant African music scene. The massive success of Osibisa created a swarm of young bands trying to use London as a launching pad for international stardom. Unfortunately, Afro Funk did not find the success they were looking for and Body Music became their only album. The deep funk grooves and driving afrobeat rhythms featured on this rare LP have made it a desired addition to record collections around the world.
