Category: Afro-Latin soul !
Pure insanity from the mighty Mulatu – one of his few American albums from the 60s! The record's an incredible blend of New York Latin and some of the more Afro-styled grooves Mulatu explored more freely on his Ethiopian recordings – served up in a jazzy style that has plenty of vibes in the mix, and lots of percussion at the bottom! The record is a treasure throughout – other-worldly, yet still very hip and swinging – a mysterious bridge between Latin America and Africa, suspended on waves of wonderful sound! Titles include "Shagu", "Mascaram Setaba", "Almaz", "Mulatu's Hideaway", "Askum", "Playboy Cha Cha", and "One For Buzayhew"

A very minor, barely visible scuff or two may be permitted, but no scratches.

VG++(EXCELLENT or VERY GOOD ++) Disc plays near perfectly,
but may have minor paper scuffs that do not interfere with the sound quality.
There can possibly be a hairline scratch or two but nothing that is obvious or affects play.
Vinyl is bright and shiny; label is clean and unmarked.

very minor scratches and scuffs, but minimal impact on the sound quality.
Vinyl will still have good luster; labels may have minor imperfections (small labels or initials, etc.)
but otherwise clean.
VG(VERY GOOD) Vinyl will have noticeable scratches or scuffs that
cause minor surface noise, but do not overpower the music. There will be no skips.
Vinyl may appear somewhat dull and grayish. Labels may have small tears, tape marks,
larger writing, etc. but still easily legible. There may be wear or deformation of the spindle hole.
G(GOOD) Well-played, dull, grayish vinyl with deeper scratches and wear causing distracting
surface noise (hisses, pops, cracks and other nasties). The record will still play through without any skips.
Labels may be significantly defaced or damaged.
