Pimp (orig, version)

Temporarily Out Of Stock

Add Item to Want List
7-inch (Item 476161) Mocambo (Germany), 2008 -- Condition: New Copy

A wicked set of funky steel drums -- a bad-stepping number from the Bacao Rhythm & Steel Band, and just the kind of hard funk cut we're always digging for on steel drum records! We hardly ever find gems this good though -- as "Pimp" has these slow-snapping drums that make the cut sound wonderful, even before the other elements come in -- bits of steel pan and trumpet that fill the tune up beautifully, and bring a sweet melodic element to the funk! The flipside version is even hipper -- very dubby and spacey, with melodica lines over the top!  © 1996-2009, Dusty Groove America, Inc.
