VARIOUS - THE ORIGINAL SOUND OF MALI 2:
Another deep dive into Malinese music by the Bongo-crew, ranging from the raw afro funk of Les Ambassadeurs Du Motel de Bamako's "Get Up James" to the swirling, hypnotic sounds of Tentemba Jazz Du Mali on "Yayoroba" and Mystère Jazz de Tombouctou on "Sidi Yahia". Excellent stuff.

AMHA RECORDS - Ethiopia Original
7 · VG/Gen · 1600 SEK
IN STOCK
ALEMAYEHU ESHETE - BECHAYANE TEGODAHU / TEREDECHEWALEHU:
"Bechayane Tegodahu" scorching Ethio funk! Flipside "Teredechewalehu" is on a more mellow and folkloristic tip but with a deep sound and very nice too. Vinyl is more or less free from marks and scuffs but has a cloudy pattern on side A, side B looks better but both sides play a bit noisy (pressing is low so some of the noise is pressing related). Ethiopian original, this is the Lebanon-made version without pic sleeve.
