| | D' Soca Zone 3rd Wave CD
Carnival time isn't the only opportunity to listen to soca music, and this compilation provides many reasons to enjoy these pulsating rhythms all year round. From the rousing opening track, "More Gyal" by Wanskie, to the soothing "That's Where I'll Be" by Rupee, D'Soca Zone covers all the bases. What makes this CD a standout is that besides the expected offerings from Trinidad, there are tunes representing smaller islands such as Barbados, St. Vincent, Grenada, and St. Thomas. There's also a mix of moods, from the rowdy ("Dance & Show Me" by Square One, "Ah Din Say Dat" by Sheldon Douglas), the sweet ("Call Me" by newcomer Kevin Little and "Sweet Soca Party" by Augustra), as well as the naughty ("Rough Wine" by KMC). D'Soca Zone reflects the many sides of soca music. ~ Rosalind Cummings-Yeates

People say that reggae has only one rhythm, and they're wrong; once you learn what to listen for, you realize that there are at least five or six basic reggae rhythms. People also say that soca only has one rhythm. In this case, they're right. It's a really fun rhythm, but there aren't very many significant variations on it. Which means that while a nice long soca single can be an essential element to a great party, an entire soca album might be a bit too much for most normal people. What distinguishes good soca from mediocre soca? Usually three things: tunes, horns, and hooks. The latest soca compilation from VP delivers good and mediocre in pretty much equal measure. On the plus side are Poorsah, whose ...

40 tracks including "54-46", "Pressure Drop 72", "Monkey Man", "Funky Kingston" and "Redemption Song" amongst many others.
First, props must be given to liner notes author Ian McCann, whose lead sentence here -- "Some have compared Toots Hibbert to Otis Redding, but he's more like the Otis Elevator Company, so surely does he take you to a higher level." -- is truly one of the all-time openers. Thing is, he's right. There's an uplifting joyousness that pervades the music of Jamaica's Toots & the Maytals -- even when Hibbert's singing about being incarcerated, in "54-46 That's My Number," he seems so happy about it that you're glad they locked him away long enough for him to write the song. Toots & the Maytals don't often receive their due when the roots of reggae are discussed -- revisionists would have you thinking it was all Bob Marley -- but it was Hibbert who gave the genre its name, with his 1968 pre-spelling change hit "Do the Reggay." And it was Hibbert and his group, originally comprising Nathaniel "Jerry" McCarthy and Raleigh Gordon, which best exemplified the close connection between American R&B and gospel and the nascent Jamaican music that went through such phases as bluebeat, rocksteady, and ska before finally morphing into reggae as we've since known it. While there is no paucity of Toots best-ofs, this 40-track British anthology collects all of the crucial Toots & the Maytals recordings from 1966-1976 and then tosses ...
