Description

Fela Ransome Kuti and Africa '70 - Expensive Shit Original Nigerian Issue LP.

Condition is "Used". Dispatched with Royal Mail 1st Class.
This is the very rare original first US Issue of the LP with the Orange "Editions Makossa" Labels. It is 45 years old and considering that it is in pretty good condition.
The cover has edge wear and the top seam has split but is not ripped and there are no stickers or writing . No damp or foxing.
The record plays quietly with little crackle despite having some visible surface marks - see the photos - hence the very low starting bid .
Please check the photos before bidding  - this is a collectors piece and as i said it sounds great and plays through with no skips -- with the surface scuffs not affecting the sound much - im going to upload a videoclip of the lead-in groove  from both sides once i work out how to make it smaller !
