Jungle Fever/Cha Ka Cha

7-inch (Item 4851) Polydor, 1973 — Condition: Very Good+
Out Of Stock

7-inch, Vinyl record

✈
Massive funkiness from the early 70s! "Jungle Fever" is one of those cuts that we never tire of – with pounding slow funk drums that still send a shiver down our spine. "Cha Ka Cha" is a slow Latin groover – with almost an LA Chicano funk sound.  © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.
(In a Polydor sleeve.)

Very Good + (plus)

  • Vinyl should be very clean, but can have less luster than near mint.
  • Should still shine under a light, but one or two marks may show up when tilted.
  • Can have a few small marks that may show up easily, but which do not affect play at all. Most marks of this quality will disappear when the record is tilted, and will not be felt with the back of a fingernail.
  • This is the kind of record that will play "near mint", but which will have some signs of use (although not major ones).
  • May have slight surface noise when played.

Additional Marks & Notes

If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.

Carlo Rustichelli

L'Homme Presse
Polydor (France), 1977. Near Mint- (pic cover)
A rare EP for the film L'Homme Presse – music that has this open, floating sort of vibe – light strings, and isolated piano lines – almost at a level that's like some of our favorite French composers from the early 70s. There's some lightly classical touches, but the sound is ... 7-inch, Vinyl record
Polydor, 1972. Good
Shouting storming uptempo funk from JB – and a track that really hints at his work at the end of the 70s! The cut screams dancefloor all over the place – and believe us, when James has bugs in his pants, he sure knows how to scream! Plus, this single also includes the oddly-numbered ... 7-inch, Vinyl record

1 of James Brown's best duets – "What My Baby Needs Now" is a sweet soul groove, with a nice swinging midtempo pace. 7-inch, Vinyl record

Alvin Cash & The Crawlers

Barracuda/Do It One More Time
Mar V Lus, 1965. Very Good+
Classic hard-grooving Alvin Cash – with that early Mar V Lus sound that feels like it was recorded at the bottom of a well! Not that that's a problem, though, as the approach makes the single bump and groove right off your turntable! "Barracuda" is a funky funky fishy dance – ... 7-inch, Vinyl record

John Coltrane

Time Was (parts 1 & 2)
Prestige, 1957. Good
Classic early John Coltrane for Prestige – less a bold statement as a leader than a strong batch of blowing session-styled tracks that show how well Coltrane could hold his own with more established players! Players are Mal Waldron, Red Garland, Paul Chambers, and Al Heath. Trane's in great ... 7-inch, Vinyl record
Uni, 1967. Near Mint-
The Foundations were the first of many successful British groups to break the American charts – and the first LP has the racially mixed group grooving like the best US soul acts from the same time.
