Description
The Afrodisia album "Elephant Sunrise" is very rare and highly sought after by collectors. This222 original 1980 German release on Comma Records is now quite scarce and commands a high price. The album's high quality and unique blend of soul, funk, disco, and jazz have made it a prized possession among collectors. The record is in Near Mint condition.
The Afrodisia were a short lived group that comprised US service personnel station in Worms, Germany and local musicians. They cut albums with ‘Elephant Sunrise’ being the only project that saw a release. The rolling bassline of ‘T.M.F.F’ gives it a funk/jazz groove while the blustery ‘Psychic Summer’ harks back to NYC Fusion. The Bill Summers penned ‘Sugar Free’ sees the group in jazzy disco territory while the superb percussive groove of ‘A Fool No Longer’ has a sweltering funk feel that rolls along and drives ahead with bags of energy. Highly recommended and almost impossible on original!
