T.P. Orchestre Poly-Rythmo de Cotonou's super rare album from 1978 was originally released on Albarika Store, one of the most important record companies in West Africa, as ALS 059 without a sleeve - or if it came with a sleeve, nobody outside of the country of Benin has ever seen one. Recorded at EMI in Lagos, Nigeria, this classic album is available once again from Acid Jazz.
