Various Artists "Funk Revival - Sounds From The Subtropics"
In the early 1970's, way down south, Cuban immigrants and their sons and daughters assimilated the sounds of American funk and soon arrived at their own version. This CD is the first of its kind to explore this fertile musical scene which, up until now, has only been available to the collector on 12" vinyl or 7" wax. The 7 " singles "Cookie Crumbs", "Soul Freedom", "Quit Jivin", "Nana", "Los Feligreses" and others on this compilation, have been staples on the underground "rare funk" scene for years and sell for as much as $650 per disc on the international collector's market. The collection features 18 slabs of rare funk from the subtropics presented together for the first time on CD. Digitally remastered from the original source tapes.
