LP (Item 470821) Tramp (Germany), 2008 -- Condition: New Copy

Hypnotic grooves from Kaleta -- a searing set of Afrobeat titles that really burns with a lot of energy! There's a complexity here that goes beyond most other contemporary Afro Funk ensembles -- one that takes especial joy in the solo parts, which are really well-crafted, and have an almost jazz-like sophistication at times -- especially on the reed parts. But the complexity never gets in the way of the rhythms, either -- as these are right on the money, and a great balance between African roots and funkier elements -- every bit what we'd expect from a release on the mighty Tramp Records label! LP features 4 long tracks -- "Get Up", "Baba Nla Iya", "Shake Your Nyansh", and "Fimile". (Vinyl-only release -- at least for the moment!)  © 1996-2009, Dusty Groove America, Inc.
