Ebony – Ice Cream Man | Vinyl LP | VG+

Description:
Ice Cream Man by Ebony is a South African four-track mini-album released in 1985 on the Right Track label and distributed by RPM Record Company. The record blends mid-1980s pop, soul, and dance influences typical of the Johannesburg studio scene of the period. The title track “Ice Cream Man” carries a catchy pop-soul groove, while tracks like “Put Your Dancin’ Shoes On” lean further toward dancefloor-friendly arrangements.

Produced by Ray Phiri and engineered by Phillip Nel at RPM Recording Studios, the record reflects the polished production style associated with South African pop and crossover dance music of the mid-1980s. Ray Phiri, well known for his work with Stimela and as a leading figure in South African music, brings a tight and professional studio sound to this release.

Pressing and Value Notes:
