alternative cover of my French vinyl copy:


RANDY WESTON - UHURU AFRIKA (1960)

these two records were once reunited on a single CD - deleted now - which served here for the rip. amazing people involved, amazing music. both files include extensive liner notes from the original records as reproduced on the randy weston web site.
