Now Hear This: Ipa-Boogie | Ipa-Boogie

I'm getting caught up on the good albums that have come out lately. Like this one.

THE EDITED PRESS RELEASE:Ipa-Boogie is a super rare LP from 1978 that almost never surfaces in good shape. Today even average condition copies can command £500 to £1,000 on the collector’s market and for good reason. These are the only known recordings by this obscure band and present the listener with some of the finest Afro-boogie and Afro-funk on offer.

Acid Jazz Records is proud to announce an exclusive licensing agreement with Albarika Store, the legendary record label that defined the sound of Benin and influenced the entire region of West Africa and beyond. This is the first exhaustive look at the archive and will see the label presented in a way that ensures its historical importance is recognized. The first releases will be a series of super-rare and in-demand original albums to be reissued on vinyl. Transferred from the original tapes and mastered by Frank Merritt at The Carvery, they are presented with beautiful artwork and packaging to match the sonics. This is the music as it should be heard.”
