Ogassa- Ogassa Original Vol. 1

Ogassa- Ogassa Original Vol. 1
Ogassa- Ogassa Original Vol. 1

Over the past couple of years Acid Jazz have been re-issuing releases from the enigmatic Albarika Store label, a goldmine in Afro cuts from Benin, West Africa. The latest instalment is the ultra-rare Ogassa Original (Vol. 1), the first LP from obscure but ultimately brilliant Porto Novo group, Ogassa from 1978. Like many Albarika releases, it was recorded at EMI Lagos, giving a depth and fidelity that stands out in the realm of Afro rarities. Reissued in full with the original artwork for the very first time, this is a must have for Afro collectors and completists alike.

Track List

  1. Avale
  2. Ogassa Story
  3. Production Vido Tche
  4. Gbe We Gnin Wa Bio

🩷 Open My Records To Avoid Seam Splitting

In order to ship your records to you in the safest way possible, and to avoid seam splits, we recommend removing the record from the jacket when shipping. That said, we will never open sealed records and do this without your permission. If you would like your records shipped to you this way, please add Open My Records to your cart.

We will place your jacket and record inside a FREE protective poly with all shrink and hype stickers intact.
