Gardner Lalanne et son Combo
Etoile Moin Brillé
Macaya Stereo 127
Yesterday we had a record by Les Loups Noirs with Gardner
Lalanne. Today apparently the only album with his own combo.
It is not entirely clear from what year the elpee is. One thing
I do know, it is a very enjoyable record. Listen ..

Seven 7″ Singles from Panama
Various Artists
Gisteren beloofd, vandaag maar gelijk de koe bij de horens gevat.
Het was een beetje een bevalling, drie keer opnieuw begonnen
omdat het opnemen de mist in ging, eigen schuld, dikke bult.
Wat is het geworden ?
Na wat single dozen door te hebben gespit viel de keuze vandaag
op deze zeven singles uit Panama. De Panamese cumbia is heerlijk
speels en tamelijk anders dan die uit Colombia. Wel zijn enkele
tracks door Colombiaanse componisten geschreven. ‘Cabellos
Largos’ en ‘Mariposita’ zijn van Alfredo Gutierrez en ‘La Danza
Española’ van Gildardo Montoya. Ga er niet voor zitten maar
dans de kamer eens rond met deze ‘Seven 7″
Singles from Panama’ ..
Yesterday promised, today I grasped the nettle. It was a bit
of a job, I had to start over three times cuz I blew the recording,
but that’s my own stupid fault. Let’s see what it became ..
After going through some single boxes the choice was made.
I went for these seven singles from Panama. Panamenian cumbia
is so fanciful and quite different from the Colombian variant.
Some of the tracks were written by Colombian composers though,
‘Cabellos Largos’ en ‘Mariposita’ are by Alfredo Gutierrez and ‘La
Danza Española’ by Gildardo Montoya. Do not sit down to listen
but dance across the room for once with these
‘Seven 7″ Singles from Panama’ ..

Electrecord 1972
I have made a promise to our blog friend Pete to make
another ‘Seven 7″ Collector’, untill today I didn’t find the
time to do so unfortunately. He reminded me completely
justified yesterday. I promise to make time Pete. Another
request he made me was to post European music. Let’s see ..
Ever since I got aquainted with ‘Lautari’ or Muzica Lautareasca,
I started searching for records on Romania’s ‘Electrecord’ label.
Over the years we had several posts with Romanian music.
Today, we find this album on Electrecord with three artists
performing. Romica Puceanu with her velvet voice, Marcel
Budala and his accordeon and Gabi Lunca. Wonderful music
loaded with Romanian emotional gypsie feel. I just love it ..

Professor Richard Ugiagbe and
his Afro Ministers Band – Vol. 3
Shanu Olu Records 1978
Steeds dieper duikend in de Nigeriaanse highlife uit de Etsakor
regio vinden we vandaag deze plaat met Professor Richard
Ugiagbe. Hij verschijnt op het Shanu Olu label en stamt uit
1978. De sound van Richard Ugiagbe is niet zo donker als
die van veel stijlgenoten maar helder en toegankelijk.
Veel elpees uit die buurt en tijd zijn slecht en bekrast,
deze daarentegen speelt mooi en klinkt dito ..
Diving deeper in the Nigerian highlife from the Etsakor region
today we find this album with Professor Richard Ugiagbe. It
came out on the Shanu Olu label and is from the year 1978.
Richard Ugiagbe’s sound is not as dark as that of many time
and style buddies but is bright and accessible. Many of the
records from that time and area are in bad state and
scratchy, this one however plays and sounds nice ..

Kijk, dat zijn verzoekjes waar ik blij van wordt, José vroeg
me of ik meer wilde posten van Andrés Landero, Juancho
Polo Valencia en/of Alejo Durán. Van Andrés Landero heb
ik niet meer zoveel maar de andere twee, geen probleem.
Maar eens beginnen met een plaat van Juancho Polo Val-
encia. Deze is uit 1974 en bevat een rijtje nummers die we
nog niet eerder hadden. Heerlijke vallenato van één der
groten in het veld .. down, deel en luister ..
Well, these are the type of requests that make me happy.
José asked me to post some more of artists like Andrés
Landero, Juancho PoloValencia or/and Alejo Durán. With
Andrés Landero I have not much left but the other two,
no problem. Let’s start with another record by Juancho
Polo Valencia. This one is from 1974 and contains some
songs we didn’t have yet. Delightful vallenato by one
of the masters in the field.

Afro-Rythmes Présente
Bumba Massa – Maria Theresa
Opika Opika Opika ! Pika Pende.
Afro-Rythmes 1988
For the lovers of Congolese music we’ve got another
record with Bumba Massa today. We had two albums
earlier, on one he was called Sammy instead of Bumba.
Bumba Massa used to work with the greatest of artists.
Names like Empompo Loway, Bavon Marie Marie, Johnny
Bokelo, Vicky Longomba, Franco Luambo, Pablo Lubudika
and Syran Mbenza are a few that make huge impression.
On this 1988 album, Bumba Massa appears with Lokassa
Ya Mbongo and Dally Kimoko among others. Although
mainly key-based (I am more fond of guitars myself)
Bumba Massa’s sweet voice make this a nice record ..
Voor de liefhebbers van Congolese muziek hebben we
nog een plaat met Bumba Massa vandaag. Eerder zagen
we reeds twee andere elpees, op één van de twee werd
Bumba ‘Sammy’ genoemd. Bumba Massa werkte met de
meest indrukwekkende atiesten in zijn leven. Namen als
Empompo Loway, Bavon Marie Marie, Johnny Bokelo,
Vicky Longomba, Franco Luambo, Pablo Lubudika en
Syran Mbenza zijn natuurlijk niet de minste. Op dit
album uit 1988 verschijnt Bumba met Lokassa Ya
Mbongo en Dally Kimoko o.a. Hoewel op deze
elpee voornamelijk synthesizers soleren (ik hou
zelf meer van gitaren) maakt Bumba Massa’s
mooie stem veel goed ..

Los Corraleros de Bogotá – Self Titled
Discos Rex 1971
Good morning groovers, yesterday a certain commenter
told me to stop posting music from cd and go back to
bringing stuff from rare old elpees. Okay, no problem
if you wish to criticize my work. However, if you do this
anonymous, I shall not publish it. Let’s
see, what do we have today ..
If you want something rare, this is rare.
I can’t seem to find them anywhere on the web.
Over the years we saw several albums with Los Corraleros
de Majagual. They were very famous. Today we find this
record with Los Carraleros de Bogotá. Some of the songs
were written by Efrain González of whom we found some
records before. Other songs were written by Julio Sanjuan
and José Barros. We have an elpee with Pedro Quinto
which also contains songs written by these three. I’m
not sure if any of them took part of Los Corraleros
de Bogotá. If anybody does, please share
your knowledge ..

Rico’s Creole Band, 1931-1937
Mammy Bong, Harlequin 1993
On Harlequin we find this lovely cd with the music of Filiberto
Rico and his group Rico’s Creole Band. He was a Cuban clarinet
player and one of the first to bring Cuban music to Europe.
Read more in this Bio.
Blessed in Havana, Cuba, in 1910, Filiberto Rico was one of
the primary wave of music artists to popularize Latin American
music throughout north European countries. An alto saxophonist
who doubled on flute, youthful Rico gigged and documented with
several rings in Paris and Copenhagen through the past due ’20s,
especially Moises Simon’s Orquesta Tipica Cubana. Rico’s Creole
Music group was produced in 1930 and interested the Parisian
open public using the conga, the beguine, as well as the bolero
until a proliferation of Nazis (equipped with a racist Weltan-
schauung that criminalized the cultural variety embodied in
the word “Creole”) managed to get essential for this Afro-Cuban
musician to absent himself from the spot through the years
1941-1946. Rico’s postwar reputation in Paris and along the
France Riviera is renowned, and continues to be related to the
mixing of Western european and Latin American designs. His early
recordings had been reissued in two amounts on compact disk with
the Harlequin label in 1993-1994, and his postwar profession is
documented on the retrospective two-fer released in 2003 by
Fremeaux & Associes. ( MusicianBio)
