Afro Latino – Live From The Bass Clef LondonVarious
LP (Item 609290) Wave (UK), 1985 — Condition: New Copy
Think that groovy sounds in London only started with the acid jazz scene at the end of the 80s? Think again – because in the years before, The Bass Clef was a real hotspot of cross-cultural activity – helping to spark the fire that would burn strongly in the Dingwalls years and beyond! This excellent set provides a rare look at London's Latin and African grooves in the mid 80s – featuring not just local players, but groups from outside the UK who were making a big impact at the time – yet who also seemed to pick up some of London's great ear for funk and soul as well. Titles include "Amata" by Somo Somo, "Wosa Wena" by District Six, "Batucada" by London School Of Samba, "Cafe De Paris" by Cayenne, "Dos Labrimas" by El Sonido De Londres, and "Entre Rejas" by Barrio Latino. © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
