FERRY DJIMMY & HIS DJIKINS RYTHM REVOLUTION- FDJ1971-001
EXTREMELY RARE AFRO BEAT RECORD MANUFATURED IN BENIN. I TRIED TO GET SOME MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE BAND AND PHONED COTONOU TO SPEAK TO SOME MUSICIANS FROM BENIN......AFTER THE CHAT I WAS EVEN MORE CONFUSED THAN BEFORE. THE BAND MEMBERS, SO IT SEEMS, WHERE ALL FROM IVORY COAST, WHILE THE LYRICS WHICH ARE IN YORUBA INDICATE THAT DJIMMY HIMSELF WAS FROM SOUTH BENIN. THE SINGER WAS LAST SEEN IN BENIN IN THE MID 70s. FERRY DJIMMY HAS RECORDED ONE SINGLE FOR EMI, AND THIS LP WHICH WAS RELEASED ON HIS OWN LABEL "REVOLUTION RECORDS"....PROBABLY THE ONLY ONE......YOU ASKED FOR OBSCURE STUFF...WELL HERE IT IS!!! POORLY RECORDED & PRESSED BUT ONE OF THE CRAZIEST PSYCHEDELIC RECORD I EVER HEARED FROM AFRICA....ABSOLUT KILLER !!

GOLDMINE GRADING - MINT ---- It should appear to be perfect. No scuffs or scratches, blotches or stains, labels or writing, tears or splits. Mint means perfect.
- NEAR MINT ---- Otherwise mint but has one or two tiny inconsequential flaws that do not affect play. Covers should be close to perfect with minor signs of wear or age just becoming evident: slight ring-wear, minor denting to a corner, or writing on the cover should all be noted properly.
- VERY GOOD PLUS ---- The record has been handled and played infrequently or very carefully. Not too far from perfect. On a disc, there may be light paper scuffs from sliding in and out of a sleeve or the vinyl or some of the original luster may be lost. A slight scratch that did not affect play would be acceptably VG+ for most collectors.
- VERY GOOD ---- Record displays visible signs of handling and playing, such as loss of vinyl luster, light surface scratches, groove wear and spindle trails. Some audible surface noise, but should not overwhelm the musical experience. Usually a cover is VG when one or two of these problems are evident: ring wear, seam splits, bent corners, loss of gloss, stains, etc.
- GOOD ---- Well played with little luster and significant surface noise. Despite defects, record should still play all the way through without skipping. Several cover flaws will be apparent, but should not obliterate the artwork.
- POOR ---- Any record or cover that does not qualify for the above "Good" grading should be seen as Poor. Several cover flaws.
All the records are cleaned with a professional Record cleaning machine.
