Description
RARE FIRST RELEASE (I presume) OF, "Religious Music of Falashas (Jews of Ethiopia)" BY THE ETHNIC FOLKWAYS LIBRARY. The catalog number is EFL 1201. The insert, equally rare, has a date of 1950. The more common 33 RPM, Ethnic Folkways Library P201, is dated 1951 on discogs. Both have the same titles:
A1 Prayer For Passover A2 Prayer For New Year A3 Prayer For Passover A4 Prayer "Adonai" For Saturday B1 Prayer Of Absolution B2 Prayer "Adonai" For Weekdays B3 Responsive Reading
I presume these are 78 RPM, although I can't see record speed indicated anywhere.
The textured album is in VERY GOOD CONDITION, with light corner wear, little to no edge wear, clean spine paste-on. The 6-page insert includes a loose leaf, pages 3-4, and a folded bigger leaf for pages 1-2, and 5-6. Records LOOK QUITE PLAYABLE, with a light scratch or scuff over clean shellac, I'll grade VG++.
