High Note Mento Collection – v/a 2cd

Dubbel op Doctor Bird met ‘mento’. (‘Mento is a style of Jamaican folk music that predates and has greatly influenced ska and reggae music. It is a fusion of African rhythmic elements and European elements, which reached peak popularity in the 1940s and 1950s.’). ‘Three 1970s High Note albums new to CD. Precious little material in the style that was recorded during the Seventies has seen reissue. This 2CD set aims to address that oversight by showcasing three of the most popular mento collections of the decade, with the original LP track-listings bolstered by an array of relevant bonus tracks.’ Hier een nummer van de Jolly Brothers om een indruk te krijgen.
