Description

Psychedelic Aliens PSYCHO AFRICAN BEAT ltd ed 7" box

2010 Academy records, unbelievable box set of music rescued from oblivion by the heroic efforts of Academy and Frank Gossner (with assistance from Uchena at Comb & Razor, and Miles at Soundway, as well as plenty of others in Africa and across the globe).  A rare and powerful combination of garage rock, funk and hypnotic African grooves from this short-lived Ghanian band who only released 3 singles during their short life.  It took many years and lots of sleuthing to uncover the mystery and actually contact the band, but it was well worth it.  This is the LIMITED EDITION 7-inch box set (according to our contact at Academy, they have already sold out of them, whatever retailers and distributors have the stock, that's it.)  Nice heavy box includes four 7-inch records lovingly remastered (very good sound, better than some of the Soundway remasters), plus a booklet with info and interview, and a cloth patch to sew on your record bag, leather jacket, etc. (I wish they would include 2 patches, since I know most record fiends will want to keep the set complete and wont use the patch, but you only get one patch).  The IDEAL gift for the music loving record nerd in your life (I say that knowing full well that you are going to want to keep this for yourself when you see it.)

SHIPPING: we ship within 2 business days of payment most of the time (orders place over the weekend obviously won't be processed until the following Monday (or Tuesday for many US holidays).  We ship US MAIL, 1st class for cds, media mail for vinyl, and 1st class international for all overseas orders (large orders may require Priority Mail International), actual shipping time varies, often it is surprisingly quick.
