This is no joke, no april’s fool before time… we are indeed talking about the mystical record from Bamako’s Buffet de la gare by the mythical Rail Band Orchestra. Music ? Oh, yes, this is also about music. There must be some way to talk about it :
A1 : Voodoo sorcery and laugh of the Devil A2 : Funky Holy ghost and Black magic power A3 : Manding bewitching mysteries and Bambara angel's tales A4 : Heaven's gate and pure spirits B1 : Symbol of god's grace and eternal peace B2 : Socrate's hemlock and Ulysse's venomous sting B3 : Baleful as Mme Butterfly destiny and hypnotic as the belly of Mata Hari B4 : Skies dizzy heights and Kilimadjaro fatal vertigo.
This record is the reflection of the neverending struggle between the good and the evil. As deadly as a siren’s song, it will take you in the abyss of infinite time. As dangerous as the portrait of Dorian Gray, it could grant you with immortality . As hypnotic as the snake’s eyes in the Book of the Jungle, it will take you in the depth of hell. Is this the work of the Devil ? Partly. But weher the Devil is, God is too. Theophile or St Basile ? The one does not exist without the other… However, everything leads us to think that this is a Gift of God. Because, when you will listen to this divine music, you will acquire new insights on life, a pure spirit, ways for a better world. And finally, you will find eternal peace.Yes, this is a TALISMAN !!! Yes, this is a Gift of God. Actually everything here is a Gift of God. To begin with the African continent, its human, spiritual and natural treasures, its musicians, the existence of this recording…
And more than my own commentary, I prefer to share the one that I have received from a friend. It's more eloquent... : "My GOD !! BOOM ! The UFO has landed !!! This one must be in your top 20 Afro - RIGHT?? Top 10 maybe? Top 5? It's hard to say, is it No.°1 . . . Could it be? A TALISMAN for sure. For me pure sunshine & happiness !! You've caused Spring to come & the Polar Ice Caps to melt. What are the Polar Bears and Walrus to do ?? Groove out to this unearthly music -- it's just TOO MUCH !! You know, I heard a few MP3s of this, but those couldn't prepare me for this musical bomb. Who were these musicians (magicians) and how did they come up with it? Their music takes me to a different world and a different time. Could this be HEAVEN? I never actually thought I'd have this. It's more than a gift, it is a miracle !! (...) it touches me so DEEPLY--straight to my HEART !! (…)"
Well…something to add ?

Item is located in Europe. You will find the real shipping cost below (No way to list with the right shipping costs. I was forced to indicate 4 US$. Thanks for your understanding).

Sending from Belgium (3 business days after payment / Registered shipping - Priority Airl Mail)
BELGIUM : 1-7 LP's = 10$

NM (NEAR MINT) : Near perfect copy, played only a few times. At worst it may have one or two insignificant flaws.The highest grade I give for a non-sealed record / Disque et pochette impéccables, a joué seulement quelques fos. Au pire, une ou deux traces insignifiantes. C'est le grade le plus haut que je donne pour un disque non scellé.
EX (EXCELLENT) : Clean copy, there may be a few very light surface traces/hairlines, it may plays with a few tiny crackles, cover has minor defaults. / Disque en excellent état, possibilité de très lègères traces ou lignes en surface, événtuellement quelques grésillement/craquements insignifiants, pochette avec défauts mineurs....
VG++ (VERY GOOD++) : A few light surface traces/scuffs, plays with very light crackles. There may be a few traces or marks on the cover, corners or slices slightly worn...Nothing serious but is not graded EX because of few minor defaults / Très bon état dans l'ensemble, avec de légères traces et rayures en surface, très légers craquements audibles. Quelques traces ou marques possibles sur la pochette, coins ou tranches légèrement usées. Rien de sérieux mais assez de petits défauts pour ne pas être classé EX.
VG+ (VERY GOOD +) : Played a lot, will show signs of handling, has surface marks and scuffs, plays with light crackles or light surface noise background, no serious scuffs, no serious crackles. Cover slighty worn (traces, light ring wear, dog eared, corner and slices slightly worn...) / Disque qui a tourné, visiblement utilisé, avec des marques et rayures en surface, des craquements légers ou un bruit de surface en fond, mais pas de griffes sérieuses, ni de craquements sérieux. Pochette un peu usée (avec quelques traces, cornée, coins et tranches légèrement abimés, saleté, ect...)
VG (VERY GOOD) : Used record, played a lot, has a lot of surface traces, marks and scuffs, crackles and a few clicks while playing, sometimes constants but not too serious, no serious clicks, no jumps. Still enjoyable. Cover worn, may have corner and slices worn or damaged, ring wear, serious traces or little splits, slightly ripped / Disque qui a été souvent joué avec beaucoup de traces, marques et rayures diverses, quelques griffes et des craquements audibles, parfois constants mais pas trop sérieux. Ne saute pas. Toujours agréable à écouter... Pochette usée et défraichie, un peu déchirée, coins et tranches cornés ou abimés, traces sérieuses ou petits coups...
VG- (VERY GOOD MINUS) : Played a lot and more (but still playable), a lot of scuffs, marks, and traces, a lot of crackles while playing, sometimes serious, may have a few serious scuffs with serious clicks (no jumps). The cover is in a bad state, damaged... / Disque très utilisé (mais peut l'être encore...), beaucoup de griffes, de traces et de marques, peut avoir de sérieuses rayures , avec de sérieux craquements, ne saute pas. La pochette est en mauvais état, endommagée...
G (GOOD) : Indeed, not so good...but still alive ! Played while his entire life (and once again today !), or really ill-traited...A lot of serious traces, marks and scuffs, serious crackles and surface noise, serious clicks, may have jumps...The cover is really in a very bad state too, even no entire...Must be very rare to be proposed in this state... / En effet, pas si bon...mais encore vivant ! Utilisé durant sa vie entière (et aujourd'hui encore !), ou vraiment maltraité...Beaucoup de sérieuses traces, marques et rayures, sérieux craquements et bruits de surface, rayé et peut même sauter quelques fois...La pochette est aussi en très mauvais état, peut même ne pas être entière...Vraiment une rareté pour être présenté dans cet état...
POOR : ? = dead ? hard or impossible to listen to it...should be listed only in a batch. Cover ? better to say no more cover ! / ? mort ? difficile ou impossible à écouter...devrait être listé uniquement en lot. Pochette ? autant dire qu'il n'y en a plus !
