Dive into the rich rhythms of Latin, Funk, and Soul with Orchestra Harlow's "Me And My Monkey" LP, a cherished gem from 1969 pressed on black vinyl. Released by Fania Records, this album is a testament to the era's vibrant music scene, featuring the dynamic styles of Rumba, Salsa, and Boogaloo. The record spins at 33 RPM, allowing for a full-bodied audio experience that captures the essence of the 1960s Latin music revolution. The LP, catalog number LP-374, arrives in a cardboard sleeve, reflecting its classic origins with no custom modifications. Its Very Good (VG) grading denotes a well-maintained piece, promising an enjoyable listening experience. The Spanish language tracks offer an authentic taste of the period's sound, performed by the skilled Orchestra Harlow, and it's all presented in the original, first pressing format, adding a collectible edge for audiophiles and music historians alike.
I am not a regular vinyl seller. I have done some research on how best to grade these LPs and have done the best I could. I have not played any of these LPs. All the LPs were inherited, and we were not allowed to touch or play them. They have gone untouched or played for decades. Each one has gone through an initial cleaning on a static free surface with a vinyl record cleaning kit. Not all LP's have an original record sleeve, but all will come with a new one. If it does have the original, it will be left with LP as pictured. I have visited with local resell stores for advice and shipping. Keep in mind that they are used records as are most on Ebay.
