"I recently purchased a Pro-Ject Debut Carbon DC turntable from you, and I am really impressed with the level of detail and customer service I’ve received so far. The instruction folder is a great touch, and your excellent site gave me tons of info and insight into buying and setting up the turntable. Bravo!" - P. Cuffari
"Wow. I just got the turntable. It is amazing. I love the bags, I love the fact that I got it literally less than 24 hours after ordering, I love the cartoon easy set up pics, the stickers, record cleaner brush, and the sound is great for the money. SOOO Happy!! Thanks guys and gals--you just created a customer for life."- R. Montgomery
"I love the Turntable Lab, great service & great products. There's no other store or site I'd rather buy my gear from. I'll sure keep on purchasing my equipment from TTL."- D. Martinez
"It's always nice to feel like you're appreciated, and you guys have done a great job with that."- R. Abeel
"Turntable lab constantly deliver the best and most current selection of modern music on all formats. It's my first stop for vinyl house and disco music. The reviews are accurate and I can trust the buyers to source quality product. Customer service is second to none and Bret has been nothing short of outstanding in every interaction we've ever had. Proud to be a Labhead." - G. Laurie
"First off I just want to thank you and your team for everything you do! The equipment and products you sell are awesome and exactly what artists like me need. I remember when I first discovered Turntable Lab by searching online for DJ equipment. I was looking all over for different equipment that I needed and when I found TTL I was relieved to find out that you guys basically had everything I was looking for." - C. Arroyo
"My Rane mixer arrived safely yesterday. I just wanted to say thanks to you and your team for your speedy response to my initial enquiry and efficient delivery. Great price and great service, I'll definitely be telling my friends about it." - A. McConnell (Marrickville, Australia)

Originally marketed on the albums rear as: "Hard afro pop featuring large percussive rhythm section and front line," "Afro Rock" is way deeper than the relatively bland description espouses. Recorded at Morgan Studios in London by John Cameron and Alan Parker in 1973, "Afro Rock" features a collection of stripped-down African rhythms, virtuoso jazz instrumentation, fuzzy wah-wah guitars and nasty spaced-out library breaks. As Cameron himself described it in Unusual Sounds, this is “heavy duty drum-and-bass salsa music”. The album is one of the best loved records in the KPM catalog, and one of the most sought after within the "KPM 1000 Series" canon (originals currently are going for $300+ on the second hand market). Check the songs "Heat Haze," "Frozen Stream," "Safari So Good," "Swamp Fever" (which sounds a bit like The Budos Band), and "Black Light" (oo those keys!) for a blistering taste of sampler-heaven. As always, Be With went the extra mile on these KPM 1000 Series reissues, remastering the original analogue tapes to get the highest quality product, and it doesn't disappoint! As with all these KPM records, don't snooze! Highly recommended from the Suede.
- remastered from the original analogue tapes
- 180g vinyl pressing
