From the same year as yesterday’s album, same label and
also with Sly, Robbie, Barry Reynolds, Wally Badarou, Mikey
Chung and Sticky Thompson we’ve got this stunning record
by Joe Cocker. Also starring are Adrian Belew, Jimmy Cliff
and Robert Palmer. What a great line-up and ditto album.
Sly & Robbie guarantee an incredible fatback sound again ..

Uit het zelfde jaar als gisteren’s album, zelfde label en ook
met Sly, Robbie, Barry Reynolds, Wally Badarou, Mikey Chung
en Sticky Thompson hebben we deze pracht plaat met Joe
Cocker. Ook van de partij zijn Adrian Belew, Jimmy Cliff en
Robert Palmer. Wat een Line-up en ditto elpee. Sly & Robbie
staan wederom garant voor een ongelooflijk dikke sound ..

01 – Look what you’ve done
02 – Shocked
—- Sweet little woman
03 – Seven days
04 – Marie
05 – Ruby lee
06 – Many rivers to cross
07 – So good so right
08 – Talking back to the night
09 – Just like always

Vandaag maar eens een heel andere kant op. In de lange
lijst Sly & Robbie projecten is dit een plaat die hoog staat
op mijn lijstje. In 1982 kwam hij uit en scoorde direct als
geen ander. Barry Reynolds werkte jaren met Marianne
Faithfull met wie hij op deze plaat ook enkele nummers
schreef. 10 strakke tracks die naast Sly & Robbie werden
opgenomen met een aantal artiesten die vooral bekend
staan om hun werk in de reggae. We zien Wally Badarou,
Mikey Chung en Sticky Thompson. Prachtige backing vocals
door Marcia Griffiths en Judy Mowatt. Een
snoepje van de bovenste plank ..

And now for something completely different. In the long list
of Sly & Robbie projects, this is a record that stands in high
position. It appeared in 1982 and immediately scored big time.
Barry Reynolds worked with Marianne Faithful for years. She
co-wrote a number of songs on this album. 10 tight tracks
that, next to Sly & Robbie, were recorded with artists we
mainly know from reggae music. We find Wally Badarou,
Mikey Chung and Sticky Thompson. Great backing vocals by
Marcia Griffiths and Judy Mowatt. A slice of sweets ..

We had a couple of their records in 2008, 9 and 10. Senegalese
music used to appear here more often in those days. About time
to follow up on them. We hear some different styles on this Vol. 7.
Experimenting with tango is something you don’t expect from the
band that usually did afro-cuban and such. Listen to Dakar’s
Star Band on this 1980 album, get it and spread it ..

In de jaren 2008, 9 en 10 hadden we enkle van hun platen. In die
tijd sowieso veel vaker Senegalese muziek. Hoog tijd dus om hier
eens een vervolg aan te geven. We horen verschillende stijlen op
deze Vol. 7. Er wordt zelfs geëxperimenteerd met tango, iets wat
je van deze groep, die overwegend afro-cuban speelde, niet zou
verwachten. Luister naar de Star Band de Dakar op deze plaat
uit 1980. Haal binnen en geef weer door aan je vrienden ..

( So weird, for days HTD didn’t update at all and got stuck
on october 16. Today I posted the Star Band de Dakar
and I see Jillem Posted this yesterday. Strange things
happen and this is pure coincidence. Sorry Jillem, I really
did not see it. Was already wondering
what happened to you ..

That ‘Los Corraleros de Majagual’ album of yesterday alone
was already downloaded hundreds of times. I guess it is time
to catch up with some of their older records. I’ve got a bunch
of them waiting, let’s see ..
This one is from 1967 and contains some of their greatest
songs ever. A few of them have appeared here on earlier
occasions but we also find songs that we didn’t have yet.
Tropical de Colombia like Paseaíto, Pompo, Pasaje,
Charanga, Son and Bolero, enjoy listening ..

In 1977 the album was re-released. On this re-issue two
songs were replaced. ‘Hay que gozar’ and ‘Mejor que te vayas’
were replaced by ‘Sarita’ and ‘La minifalda’. I have added Sarita
as bonustrack. ( see other picture, also in the file)

With Eliseo Herrera, Lisandro Mesa, Julio Erazo,
Calixto Ochoa, César Castro & Tony Zuñiga ..

From the band, in which so many famous Colombian artists
started their career, we find this 1965 album. With singers
Eliseo Herrera, Calixto Ochoa and César Castro. Being 55 yrs.
of age it sounds a little dusty. It is a historic record though,
one that every collector of Colombian music should posess.
Straight party sound from the vaults of Discos Fuentes ..

Ik zag een film waarin de begin tune van deze plaat voorkwam.
Direct de kast in gedoken om hem te rippen, wat een heerlijke
soulplaat. Ik kon niet onderdrukken hem met jullie te delen.
Down, deel en luister ernaar met veel plezier ..
