Banda Uniao Black (Vampi Soul version)

LP (Item 530076) Vampi Soul (Spain), 2006 — Condition: New Copy

The long-awaited return of Uniao Black – one of the greatest Brazilian funk bands of the 70s, sounding better than ever here with some great raw production! The record's easily some of the best work the group's ever done – and although current, the whole thing's got a searing sound that almost even blows away their key 70s work for Mercury – a groove that's heavy on the bottom rhythms, and snaps along with more of a deep funk approach than the group ever had! A few tracks feature some nice keyboards in the mix, and the group's horn section is as tight as they ever were – but even more interesting is the fact that the album was done in collaboration with Brooklyn's Embassy Sound Productions, which probably accounts for some of the deep funk touches. Tremendous work all around – and an instant classic you'll gladly stock next to your Samba Soul gems from years back. Titles include "Tudo Azul", "Yeah Yeah Yeah", "Everyone's A Winner", "Cris Vacilou", "Been So Long", "Escorpiao", "Astral", and "Na Palma Da Mao".  © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
