CD (Item 601320) Trans Air (Puerto Rico), 1970s — Condition: New Copy

A more soul-centric set from the folks behind the West Indies Funk series – and the best overall batch yet from the island music connoisseurs at San Juan's Trans Air label – here's hoping West Indies Soul blossoms into a series of its own! There's actually still quite a bit of funk in the equation here – which is, by and large, a sweet set of sun-toasted funky soul, with a bit of a tropical infusion – a couple recognizable names and many more we're seeing for the first time. Timeless, goodtime soul numbers by Mark Holder, The Guinness Casanovas, Johnny Baptiste, Judy Mowatt, Soul Vendors, Lloyd Williams with Tommy McCook & The Supersonics, Dobby Dobson and others. Includes "Bring My Lover Back" by Mark Holder, "Expressway to Your Heart" by The Guiness Casanovas, "Funky Broadway" by Lians Thelwell & His Celestials, "Goodbye Baby" by Lloyd Willaims With Tommy McCook & The Supersonics, "Johnny's Dream" by Johnny Baptiste, 'People Get Ready" by The Troubadours, "Too Good For Me" by Judy Mowatt, "What Love Has Joined Together" by Dobby Dobson, "What An Experience" by Judy Mowatt and more. 16 in all.  © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
