Aside from Mandrill, few bands from the 1970s were able to meld funk, soul, reggae, and jazz like this Caribbean septet. This 2 CD set is highlighted by the loping standard "The Message" and the gritty rarity "Brothers on the Side."
Import exclusive compilation for the 70s funk-soul act features 11 tracks on disc one plus 7 bonus tracks on disc two, 'Getting It Back', 'Anthracite', 'The Message', 'Bra', 'Rickshaw', 'Dove' & 'Changes'. Delta Deluxe. 2003.
*****The True BOMB Collection!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is the one to buy if you are a die-hard fan from the original vinyl days like me or a newbie who might have heard "Bra" on the "25th Hour" soundtrack. There is no Cymande collection that even comes close to it for song selection and sonic quality. The mix is absolutely dope, bass and percussion right on top and in your face. I haven't changed the cartridge in my car changer since I put this set in there, and I have 6 cartridges loaded with banging new music in the car on rotation all the time, so that's really saying something. I love it!!!!!! Buy this collection and you won't regret it. Submitted by Malik H. (Hampton, VA, USA) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo
