Notes
Vinyl LP pressing. Wganda Kenya was ahead of it's time, anticipating current contemporary Afro-Latin-funk trends in a prescient way that has inspired a legion of fans across the globe. As part of that legacy, Africa 5000 (1975) has a legendary reputation as one of Discos Fuentes' best hard-to-find Afro Caribbean funk records and is a highly prized collector's piece. This LP features several classic dance floor gems as well as some lesser-known nuggets and a non-album bonus cut, plus informative notes. The epic 'La torta' ('The Cake') kicks things off with a lively Colombian interpretation of Haitian compas. The tune is still remembered as a big picó (amplified sound system) hit at the verbenas (outdoor dance parties). 'Fiebre de lepra' ('Leprosy Fever') was also released as a 45 single and is certainly one of Wganda Kenya's wilder tracks. Funky wah-wah guitar, makossa style bass, manic organ, and feverishly insane vocals (from Wilson "Saoko" Manyoma and Joe Arroyo) indicate that Fruko and his pals were having a ball goofing around in the studio.

Seller communicated to me the shipment takes up to 15 BUSINESS days. I received the item 14 business days after purchase. No problem if you’re willing to wait for your order to arrive.FANNY REPRISE YEARS 1970-1973 NEW CD (#296643476402)
- m***t (489)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe seller sent me a brand new sealed box set making this purchase and excellent value. The seller could use a little more information in his descriptions but communication were favorable so I took a chance and won with this seller. The box set arrived on time and in pristine condition. Each CD is enclosed in high quality paper holder with the original album artwork on both sides however, the holder is made of a rather stiff material and I will let you know if it scratches the CD's from use.
- f***s (179)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThere was a problem with delivery. Tracking said it was delivered on a Monday but it didn't actually arrive until Wednesday but once it arrived everything was exactly as described. Communication over this issue was fast & courteous. Most likely a shipper issue NOT a seller issue. Completely happy with my purchase and would buy from again as I have before. TANX
