Description: Very rare original Nigerian press on Philips. A lot of these OG African & South American records are tough to grade from a traditional goldmine standard, as really none were kept in archival condition and even the cleanest copies have some baseline noise. But that being said I'll provide roughly what I think it grades visually by goldmine standards and what it sounds like, as some of these albums look beat up, but sound excellent. Vinyl grades visually between VG/VG+ and sounds great VG/VG+ with only some light surface noise. Cover is G+ with general wear & staining, but in overall great shape for an original Nigerian record from this time period. All records shipped in new Whiplash mailers, outside their covers, but inside poly lined inner sleeves to protect them during transit.
