Description

Rare original pressing on Fela's own Kalakuta Records from Nigeria. The sleeve has some wear and a small patch of white where a price sticker once was and has pulled off the print (see top right in pic), the vinyl has many scuffs and plays with background crackle, but nothing too overpowering and it is still enjoyable to listen to. This LP also comes with it's original insert, a fake 4 page newspaper! This has been folded and has some crumples a light staining in places, but otherwise in decent shape with no rips. A very collectable item and such a great LP, Fela made the best music and had such great LP cover art.
