Description

LIVY EKEMEZIE Friday Night INSANE mega rare AFRO BOOGIE funk GRAIL lp HEAR

ARTIST - Livy Ekemezie
TITLE - Friday Night
LABEL/ CATALOG NUMBER - 
DESCRIPTION - THIS F*CKING RECORD! What a monster. All hype aside, this record is at the pinnacle of private boogie, not just in Nigeria, but in the world. It’s just a special, special record and it’s basically unknown. Not for long though! 
CONDITION - The grade on this one is tough, it appears stone cold NM, and plays perfectly with the very notable exception of a repeating skip two minutes into the first track “Get It Down.” As I’ve never seen another copy, I’m not sure if this is a common pressing issue or what. Oh, and it’s on GORGEOUS translucent blue vinyl.Please note: Unless stated otherwise all gradings are visual. Audio clips of the actual record for auction are provided for reference, as well as high resolution images of the sleeves. If a link is broken or not working, or you would like any clarifications, please do not hesitate to email us.

Our goal is superior service and quick, clear communication. If you have any questions or issues, they’ll be dealt with promptly.

(((GRADING SCALE))): *PLEASE NOTE: I'm grading these African records to the same strict standards I'd grade any record, not relative to the condition you normally find African records in.*


NEAR MINT (NM)


We never assign Mint or Mint(-) grades, and the Near Mint designation is reserved for records that are visually flawless - as in, not one single mark. All records are graded visually unless otherwise noted, but any record with the Near Mint designation has also been play tested.



VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+)


Records in VG+ condition are in superb condition, but may have a faint mark or imperfection (that does not appear to affect play) holding it back from Near Mint status. A record can still attain this condition with a slight (but audibly imperceptible) warp, but this will always be noted in the description. VG+ records should play with no surface noise, clicks, pops, skips or hiss, as well as retain their luster.


VERY GOOD (VG)


Many of the imperfections found on a VG+ Record are more obvious on a VG record.  VG records have more obvious flaws than their counterparts in better shape. They lack most of the original gloss found on factory-fresh records. Groove wear is evident on sight, as are light scratches deep enough to feel with a fingernail.


VG records may have some surface noise, especially during the soft passages at a songs intro and ending but should never skip, pop loudly or overpower the music. A record receiving this grade should be a strong play copy, and something we’d personally be willing to play out. 


GOOD


Be forewarned, records in G condition will have significant and obvious flaws, and are not recommended for collectors who abhor surface noise, though they should still play through without skipping. We typically avoid selling records in this condition unless they are extremely rare and have extra-musical value.
