Located at 53 Rue Notre Dame du Nazareth, Paris’ Superfly Records is the place to go in the City of Lights if you are looking for Afrobeat, jazz, Latin, soul, blues, and rare R&B.
The place is a vinyl lover’s dream. It’s full of rare and vintage reggae, bossa nova, soul, jazz, funk, and just plain weird stuff. The people who run the place obviously know their stuff and stock a lot of choice cuts.
That album above is a great example. It’s a rare LP from N’Draman Blintch called Cosmic Sound – a crazy, wild Afro-funk album about nuclear war, the return of Jesus Christ, and the general end of the world. I might have snagged it if I didn’t have to pack it for the trip back to the U.S. and worry about it breaking.
This is a can’t-miss wrecka stow if you visit Paris. You’ll find at least one thing you’ve never heard of before there.
Keep your mind open.
