Ely Combo
Inspired by the ska and reggae sounds crossing the border from Belize, the Mexican band Ely Combo was among the first in the country to incorporate Jamaican rhythms into its repertoire in the early 1970s. This LP brings together funk classics-Isaac Hayes' 'Shaft' and the dancefloor favorite 'Express Yourself,' originally recorded by Charles Wright & The Watts 103rd St. Rhythm Band-reimagined here as two explosive reggae tracks, and also Jamaican originals taken from Byron Lee's Dragonaires repertoire. A remarkable anomaly within the Latin American music scene of the 1970s. TRACKLIST Side A 1. EXPRESS YOURSELF 2. SATISFACTION 3. ROD OF CORRECTION 4. STICK BY ME 5. MACBEE VERSION Side B 1. BABA SO MO 2. TEMA DE SHAFT 3. NO NO NOLA 4. SHOW ME YOUR COMPANY 5. MAGWA DOG
