CD (Item 605071) Rotel, Early 80s — Condition: New Copy

A great batch of funky Haitian tunes from Skah Shah – a group who seem to weave together many strands of music into one unified groove! The rhythms have this really bouncy sort of quality – almost an echo of cumbia, but with stronger African roots – and some of the percussion you'd expect to hear from Cuban music as well – a strong indication of the Caribbean crossroads that spawned the group and their style. Horn parts are especially nice – alto and tenor coming together in these lines that are sharp, yet gliding – and which really help give shape to the tunes. Titles include "Do It", "Racine Core", "A Sandy", "Zoute", "Vie Neg", and "Bon Tan".  © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
