Xingu-Combo Xingu-obscure 70s South American combo-LP
Xingu -- El Combo Xingu ... NEW LP REISSUE

NOT SEALED AS ISSUED

Infectious Latin groovers with lots and lots of American Afro funky touches! Xingu were a late 60s band from Chile. Seem slike the clearly heard plenty of 45s from the US, as the tracks on this set have them grooving in a style that recalls the best of The Meters, Kool & The Gang, and other classic funk acts!.

Featuring an insane instrumental funk remake of Led Zeppelin's "Moby Dick" -- complete with a breaking drum solo -- and also includes great versions of "Hot Pants", "Tanga Boo Gonk", and "Black Power" -- plus the smoking originals "493 West" and "Baja A Las Chiquillas".

Truly awesome !. File next to La Kabala and Rabbits and Carrots. A wicked Latin groover -- with lots of American funky touches! Xingu were an obscure 70s South American combo, but they clearly heard plenty of funky 45s from the US -- as the best tracks on this set have them grooving in a style that recalls the best of The Meters, The Nite-Liters, and other North American funk acts! The album features an insane instrumental funk remake of Led Zepplin's "Moby Dick" -- complete with a breaking drum solo -- and also includes great versions of "Hot Pants", "Tanga Boo Gonk", and "Black Power" -- plus the smoking originals "493 West" and "Baja A Las Chiquillas".
