42,90 €*
Karibische Alltagspoesie: Calypso-Compilation aus dem Hause Soul Jazz Records. Von seinem Herkunftsort, den Inseln Trinidad und Tobago, breitete sich Calypso über die Karibik bis nach Europa und Amerika aus. Die swingenden, mitreißenden Rhythmen, die ausdrucksstarken Melodien und die meist klugen und humorigen Texte sorgten dafür, dass Calypso zu Beginn der 1950er-Jahre einen weltweiten Siegeszug antrat. Diese Compilation enthält Aufnahmen aus den Jahren 1955 bis 1969 aus Trinidad, Jamaika, Panama, den Bahamas, England und den USA. Darunter berühmte Namen wie
Lord Kitchener alias Aldwyn Roberts, der Ende der 40er-Jahre Calypso
nach England brachte, Lord Cobra, Lord Hummingbird, Lord Growler, King
Fighter, Lord Byron, The Mighty Viper, Lord Ivanhoe und andere.

Lloyd Charmers With Byron Lee & The Dragonaires – Reggae Charm (LP)

(34.38% gespart)
Limited edition of 750 individually numbered copies on orange coloured
180-gram audiophile vinyl. Reggae Charmers is the 1970 album by Lloyd
Charmers, born Lloyd Tyrell. His career spans some of the most fertile
periods of Jamaica's musical history. From the late-'50s era of Jamaican
shuffle R&B and the subsequent ska boom, to the rocksteady and
roots reggae of the late '60s and early '70s, Charmers made valuable
contributions not only as a vocalist, but as a session musician and
producer, as well. Charmers took up the piano in 1966. A few years
later, he was an accomplished enough player to form a band of his own
with a few friends. The band eventually backed Ken Parker, Max Romeo,
Pat Kelly, John Holt, and Slim Smith & the Uniques (Charmers would
also spend some time singing for the Uniques). Buoyed by their
reputation for laying down some of the rawest and driving rhythms of the
time. Charmers is joined by Byron Lee and the Dragonaires on this
record, that is a must for all true fans of vintage Jamaican sounds.
