Jazz-funk psychedelia with some reggae elements.Debut album,1972
new and sealed LP
reissue of this classic first album by the legendary British dub funk outfit Cymande -- done with that gatefold cover and everything! A key part of the crumbling British colonial network that produced some excellent music in the postwar years, Cymande was comprised mostly of West Indians who'd emigrated to England in the 60s, eventually meeting up under a shared musical vision -- a completely new blend of funk, dub, jazz, and soul that was unlike anything else that had been recorded before, save for the work of a few other Brit groups of a similar nature. This first album's one of their greatest -- and it's a refreshing batch of tunes that mix together heavy basslines, laidback drumming, and a righteous soul vocal style that's got a bit of a stoner touch.
The album includes the group's massive cut "The Message", a bit of a minor hit when it was released (and later sampled quite famously) -- plus the funky classics "Dove", "Zion I", "Listen", "Bra", and "Rickshaw". Pick this up, and sample one of the 70's most unique funk groups!
Includes:
"Zion 1"
"One More"
"Getting it Back"
"Listen"
"Rickshaw"
"Dove"
"Bra"
"The Message"
"Rastafarian Folk Song"
