PODER DEL ALMA
Poder del Alma II
NEW LP

PHARAWAY SOUNDS

Cat Nº: PHS077

Impossible to find second album by this band from Nicaragua, 1975.

A cool mix of Latin funk, jazz, salsa and psychedelic grooves.

Including some of their most sought after tracks like “Bacanal’ 76”, “Mimo” or the antiracist statement “La Conga de las Dos Razas”.

After recording their first LP in Guatemala, Nica supergroup Poder del Alma travelled to Costa Rica to register their second album. This time the recording studio and equipment (including Mini-Moog) were better and the band featured a new line-up. The result was a powerful album which is now one of the holy grails of Latin funk worldwide.
