Description

Extremely rare Hilife / Twi single on Decca (West Africa) by the legendary E T Mensah & His Tempos Band, released in Ghana. 
These authentic West African releases are hard enough to find in any condition, but definitely in such great shape as this. 
The original Decca (West Africa) sleeve is in nice order with no seam splits, just a name written top right. It grades VG+. 
The vinyl is really clean and plays through beautifully with minimal surface noise – it grades VG++ to Excellent. 
The bright yellow and silver Decca labels are Excellent + with no wear, damage or writing. 
Rare find!
