Panama 2: Canciones de un gran pais!


I went to amoeba to get the Black Moth disc, and I saw this on the best of Latin rack. Having been to Panama twice I thought I should check it out. There are 20 tracks on one disc. Late 60's to mid 70's Cumbia, Calypso Funk, Tipico Soul, and some African influence. This is a good release, there is more diversity genre wise than you'd expect. There is a track by The Duncan Brothers that is wah wah reverb leads over a funk type beat. If you like latin percussion, cabasa ect. there are some good tracks. Viva Panama! Viva Los Canaleros! Es un disco excellente mis amigos.

EJ,I wanted to break the mold and start with Vol. 2. I can send it out if you send me that African Green Arrows thing. i couldn't find it anywhere. Are you guys using some online digital delivery? I go with snail mail when sending to The DZA.

CC to me please. I will gladly except any yousendit files from anyone here. It would be fun to bypass the snail mail.
