Choc-Stars – Defao de Choc-Stars
Editions Kaluila 1988
From 1988 we find this album with the Choc-Stars. Defao,
Carlito and Debaba sing, the great Roxy Tchimpaka does
the wonderful guitar parts. I’m sure many of you will love
their music, we’ve seen various requests concerning these.
Get it and spread it the way you’re used to ..

Biyolo le Grand dans Salubrité
Editions des Beaux-Arts
D.B.A. 0100-85, F.P. 77040
De plaat van vandaag is een tikkeltje obscuur. Over Biyolo le Grand
kan ik niets vinden. Wel vinden we dat saxofonist Paul Mayitezo
ooit iets met Les Bantous des capitale heeft gedaan en ook bij
Verckys. Met percussionist Vicka Petelo vinden we een filmpje
op Youtube. Mix is gedaan door Martin Bakala die tevens op
albums met Mayaula Mayoni, Rochereau en Docteur Nico
heeft gewerkt, opgenomen bij I.A.D. Ook opgenomen bij
studio I.A.D. in Brazzaville is dit een aardig maar enigszins
mysterieus album.
Today’s record is a bit obscure. About Biyolo le Grand I can’t seem
to find anything. What I did find was that Saxophone player Paul
Mayitezo worked with Les Bantous de la Capitale and also with
Verckys. On Youtube we find something with percussionist Vicka
Petelo and engineer Martin Bakala from studio I.A.D. also worked
on albums with Mayaula Mayoni, Rochereau and Docteur Nico.
Also recorded at studio I.A.D. this a nice but
somewhat mysterious record ..

l’Orchestre Stukas de Lita Bembo
Benson Record BEN 004, 1983
This album by l’Orchestre Stukas of Lita Bembo was shared
with us by Nick Beddow. A record we didn’t see so far from
1983. Every elpee with Stukas is pure pleasure to listen to.
Thank you very much for sharing Nick, we’ll pass it on to the
rest of the world. I’d say, get it, spread it and listen ..
P.S. This is a file type different from what we’re used to have.
Downloading can take a little longer, if it works ..

Bestman Doupere & his Coastal Pioneer
Dance Band of Nigeria
Felix Record FRLP 16
Some more Nigerian highlife today with Bestman Doupere
and his Coasta Pioneer Dance Band of Nigeria. A mouthful
of name. Just two songs, one per side. It is mellow and easy
going, so easy they forgot a letter ‘l’ in the sleeve name.
One way or the other, solid listening with Bestman Doupere ..

Les Vikings d’Haïti – An Allé Ti Fi
Mini Records / Sonovox 1973
We saw them on a few earlier occasions, this group of
topnotch musicians called Les Vikings d’Haïti. This 1973
album contains strictly beauty’s. Mainly instrumentals
but very enjoyable. Composers Fritzner Delmont, Levy
Paul, Wilner Felix and Weiner Destin made these 10
great tracks on Mini Records in sweet atmosphere ..

Gertrudis Bonilla – Yo Soy El Currulao
El Son Del Pueblo, Juajui Records 0685
Gertrudis Bonilla is here once more with this album of which we
don’t know a year of release. The main style performed is Currulao
but it also contains Son, Guaracha, Folklore and Parranda. Finally we
find some marimba, this will please our blogfriend Alexsam. Sound-
quality could have been better, get and spread anyhow ..
I’ve added a video which contains some fake footage,
you hear trumpet and see clarinet, anyway, nice to see
Gertrudis Bonilla perform ..
Gertrudis Bonilla is hier nogmaals met deze plaat waarvan we helaas
geen jaartal van uitgifte vinden. We horen voornamelijk Currulao maar
ook Son, Guaracha, Folklore en Parranda. Eindelijk eens een paar nummers
met marimba, dit zal blog vriend Alexsam een plezier doen. De geluids kwa-
liteit had beter gekund. Down, deel, luister en beoordeel zelf ..
Ik heb een video toegevoegd waarin enkele fake beelden,
je hoort trompet maar ziet clarinet, toch leuk om Gertrudis
Bonilla te zien zingen ..

Kio Jimenez y su Orquesta – Tempo Dominicano
Discos Vicar VLP-030
Let’s have us some merengue tipico with the great Orquesta
of Kio Jimenez. Not very much information is to be found on
the world wide web. We’ll have to settle for the music and
what the sleeve tells us. The album we have here is probably
from the eighties if I was to guess. If one of you knows
more about the topic, please share .. For now,
get it , spread it and listen ..
Laten we nog eens wat merengue tipico luisteren vandaag.
Dit is Kio Jimenez en zijn Orquesta. Er valt niet bar veel over
hem te vinden op het web. We zullen het moeten doen met
de muziek en wat de hoes ons vertelt. Als ik gok zeg ik dat dit
een album uit de jaren tachtig is. Als een van jullie het weet,
deel het dan s.v.p. Voor nu, down, deel en
luister naar Kio Jimenez ..

Les Frères Déjean – International
Macaya Records 1976
Compas from Haïti comes if various forms. We know the easy
going twoubadou style as performed by Coupé Cloué and Rodrigue
Milien and Toto Necessité for instance. On the other had there
is the more orchestral variety played by big groups like Super Choucoune,
Meridionale des Cayes or Shoogar Combo to name
a few. Another very famous band is this one with ‘Les Frères
Déjean’. They belong to the most listened to. The four brothers,
Fred on sax, André on trumpet, Philippe on tambour and Camille
doing percussion brought their eight companions on their third
album which we have here today. High quality compas ..
(more albums will follow)
Compas uit Haïti komt in diverse variaties. We kennen de easy
twoubadou stijl zoals die van bijvoorbeeld Coupé Cloué of Rodrigue
Milien en Toto Necessité. Aan de andere kant is er de meer orchestrale
vorm gespeeld door grote bands zoals bijvoorbeeld Super Choucoune,
Meridionale des Cayes of Shoogar Combo
om er maar een paar te noemen.
Een zeer bekende groep was ook deze met de broers Déjean.
Zij behoren tot de meest beluisterde. De vier broers, Fred op sax, André
op trompet, Philippe op tambour and Camille op percussie brachten
acht kameraden mee op hun derde plaat welke we hier hebben.
Compas van de bovenste plank ..

Phil Manzanera – Diamond Head
Atco 1975
Phil Manzanera was most known as Roxy Music’s lead guitarist.
To me his solo albums always were favourite. Being the son of
a Colombian mother and an English father he was born in London
but lived in various South American countries during his childhood.
With artists like Robert Wyatt, Brian Eno and Andy Mackay and many
others. He worked with Steve Winwood, David Gilmour, John Cale,
Godley & Creme, Nico and John Wetton to name a few ..

Super Soline d’Haïti – Cé Gérard Ou Rélé?
Tam Tam Records 1973
Here we go again, from the magical music year 1973 we find
this sweet piece of compas from Haïti. Super Soline d’Haïti is
here with this 8 track album. Not a whole lot of information
is available online but according to Discogs this one is dated
as the first one in 1973. There is a self titled record but
appears to have been released around ’75. If anybody
knows more, let us share your knowledge please ..

Brigadier Jerry – Live at the Controls
at Jack Ruby Sound, featuring
Dennis Brown, Sammy Dread & Michael Prophet
Dance Hall Stylee Records 1983
From 1983 we’ve got this ultimate deejay toaster’s reggae
album with Brigadier Jerry live at the controls. The record
gives no information what so ever. Label and sleeve both
show the same few words, front- and backside. It sounds
so nice and pure as if you are there at Jack Ruby Sound
yourself. Even some mess up’s are left on the record.
Treasured it since it came out in 1983 ..
