RAIL BAND - SAME / RCAM 3302/N.75:
"Fankante dankele" beautiful track at this strong album with no weak tracks. Record has lot of marks and has been played a lot or been without inner sleeve. It plays with constant background noise but without any major clicks or pops. A bit worse at start of both sides but in general very enjoyable. The super thin cover is in fine shape but is a bit wavy, tiny color loss on front left side plus some stains on back. Rare Malian original.
