Bottom end booty business and a real heavy bit of funk from this obscure European group.Recorded in the early 70s in Belgium its a tasty batch of Latin funk grooves, with a deep Afro-soul sound thrown into the mix, and some slight Chicano rock touches, like fuzzy guitar and heavy organ.The conga sound is right up front, and the tracks roll along with a nice heavy funk beat that cuts across from a lounge/library groove to a killing super deep percussion battering vibe.It includes fantastic funk versions of two Perez Prado groovers "Caballo Negro" and "Lupita"the latter of which is the monster dance floor mash up but the whole album really rocks - 'Ritual' also kills and was heavily sampled by Liquid People for their track 'The Dragon'.Crank the sound up and you will hear what I mean by bottom end -the groove is DEEP!!!
