The opening track on this debut ablum, "Oma Oma Oke Oke", is a traditional Cuban Rumba for Ochún featuring highly acclaimed percussionist Michael Spiro ( michaelspiro ). "Dulce Amor" is a Cuban style Son written by singer Melania Bruner and guitarist Greg Shadwick. "Descarga", also written by Shadwick is heavily influenced by Havana's Latin Jazz scene of the 1960s. "El Camello", written by pianist Johnny Kidd, is an up-tempo, syncopated Latin Jazz chart. "The Sad Organ", another original by Shadwick, speaks to the New York City scene of the 1960s and in influenced by the entrance of the electric guitar in Latin Jazz by Manuel Galban. "Chequeo de Sonido" was recorded live in the studio on the first day of recording. This track, a first take that was made up on the spot, shows the group's pure creative and improvisational skills. The overall sound of the album reflects the diverse and varied influences that the different members of the group possess. Abateria Songs | 1. | Oma Oma Oke Oke |

| | El Duende Transicion CD (1997)
Abateria album
$11.39
El Duende is a creature of pure inspiration, the agent of a passing moment of brilliance which can only be perceived and captured in the art it inspires. It is said that when a singer or a dancer performs with a passion beyond the realm of his experience, he has been visited by el duende, who has entered him like a vision from beyond this time and place. El Duende has created a blend that merges their love of rock music with the older, ancestral strain of Spanish music. It is wholly original and combines Latin percussive rhythms with guitars that move from simple grace to jarring discordance. The band was voted best World Beat group at the annual Jammy awards in 1995 and lead singer Oscar Herrera was nominated for best male vocalist. In August of 1996, the band was one of three bands featured in a three part special on Latin Rock that was televised on Telemundo's Channel 51. That same year, Oscar was included in a back-to-school campaign for Burdines, the local department store chain, that included radio, television and print advertising. The band was also featured in Burdines' radio campaign. In October of 1996, El Duende signed to 'Cane Records, The University of Miami label. The band released ...

| | James 'Blood' Ulmer Bad Blood In The City: The Piety Street Sessions CD (2007)
Abateria songs
$13.85
For those who were rightfully seduced by James Blood Ulmer's stripped-to-the-bone 2005 Birthright recording, where the great harmolodic jazz, blues, and funk guitarist played a single guitar and stomped on a board and played the blues like a Delta hoodoo shaman, Bad Blood in the City will come as quite a shock. The session was recorded at the Piety Street Studios in New Orleans, and Blood made use of its atmospherics and its history as a killer room for recording the Crescent City's second-line rhythms, electric blues, and swampy funk. Once more, the album was produced by Vernon Reid -- who plays a hell of a lot of guitar here -- and Ulmer chose his old friend from the Odyssey days, Charles Burnham, to play electric violin and mandolin, along with a cast that also includes vocalist Irene Datcher, bassist Mark Peterson, harmonica player David Barnes, drummer/percussionist Aubrey Dayle, and keyboard boss Leon Gruenbaum. The tune mix is wild, ranging from the tough hard funk of the opener, "Survivors of the Hurricane," to a cover of Junior Kimbrough's "Sad Days, Lonely Nights" that keeps its blues yet gets deeply funked up with the roiling guitars of Ulmer and Reid, Barnes' spooky harmonica, violin, piano, clarinet, and a B-3!
Then there are the originals, such as Ulmer's blues tune "Katrina," which echoes "Flood in Mississippi." It feels like some strange cross between R.L. Burnside, John Lee Hooker, and Ulmer at his deepest, most soulful and driving. Reid fills in the spaces and the entire tune is a wall of beautifully chaotic yet utterly sophisticated sound. He echoes the hypocrisy that some rather famous ministers railed on the city as being a den of sin and the hurricane being God's vengeance. He answers the tune with a soul-gospel tune called "Let's Talk About Jesus," where he and Datcher do their own form of preaching about mercy, grace, healing, and forgiveness. ...
