Here's a great, great album from Chairo & His African Percussion Safari.... Leon "Chaino" Johnson (1927 – July 8, 1999), the self-styled "percussion genius of Africa," was an American bongo player. After touring for several years on the Chitlin' Circuit, he released several albums and became popular with listeners of exotica music in the late 1950s and early 1960s. In the promotion of his albums, a fictional biography was developed, depicting Chaino as an orphan from a lost tribe in central Africa who had been rescued by a missionary after his tribe had been massacred. Chaino was actually born in Philadelphia and raised in Chicago.... This is a Japanese pressing, it says 6 songs on the A side but there's only 5 songs on the record.... GET IT HERE Enjoy!!

LARRY ROBBINS WITH HIS ORCHESTRA & CHORUS - DRUMS FOR FANS

Can't find a lot of info about this one, it's being sold on the internet (ebay, popsike and other places) and there they call it "very rare killer psych funk breaks" etc. ... Very funny record though, it says on the cover (in German) "would you like to know how a drummer hears the music from his band?" and that's basically what it is, the band in the background on volume 5 and the drums on volume.... 40....
