    Reissue of this impossibly rare, private-press, Ghanian disco LP from the late 70's on BBE! Featuring legendary musicians of the scene such as Harry Mosco. 35 years after it’s initial release,  “Disco Documentary Full Of Funk” proves that it still stands the test of time by sounding as fresh and original as any other sought-after Disco / Soul Funk LP from the West coast of Africa in the late 70s. In a word: essential!
