But for the moment, as long as this reprint is officially available at record stores and is not sold out, don't pay the prices for what this record is offered here,plus additional shipping fees...you should get it for less than 20 Euros (at least in germany)! I paid some days ago 16,99€. ''

BLO

Διαθέσιμα σε CD για πρώτη φορά, τα δύο πρώτα άλπμουμ απο το Afro-delic τρίο του Lagos της Νιγηρίας BLO! Στην νιγηριανή σκηνή των μέσων της δεκαετίας του 70, το «Chapter One» ΄73 και το «Phase II» του ΄75 καταπλήσσουν με το μείγμα απο παραδοσιακούς Αφρικάνικους ρυθμούς και αμερικανικικής psychedelia. Το group συγκροτηθηκε μεσα από τις τέφρες του Live group του Ginger Baker Salt και 35 χρονια αργότερα ζητά την προσοχή σας ως η πρώτη μπάντα ροκ της Αφρικής με έναν ''ηλεκτρονικό cosmic ήχο''.
