ROOTS JAMAICAN SOUL: 1956-61

Chris Blackwell, Clement «Coxsone» Dodd, Duke Reid, Prince Buster, Edward Seaga and Byron Lee are all legendary figures, and here they were beginning their careers as producers. Influ-enced by the sounds of New Orleans and Memphis, this Jamaican R&B, featured in 44 exceptional titles selected by Bruno Blum, represents a unique cocktail: blues, boogie-woogie, shuffle, swing jazz, jump blues, gospel, nyabinghi, doo-wop and rock & roll! Forgotten by history, this tropical rock-music preceding the arrival of ska contains the authentic roots of reggae. Many of these seminal bluebeat pieces have been almost impossible to find since the Sixties but, at last, here they are!” Patrick FReMEAUX 0_x000D_ 99697 FA5359 3561302535920 60 YEARS SCOTTISH GAELIC: 1899 VARIOUS VARIOUS FRE FRÉMEAUX & ASSOCIÉS COMPACT DISC 2023-02-28 01:37:41.020 19.49 29.99 2012-01-01 00:00:00.000 2012-01-01 00:00:00.000 35.99 23.39 NOA 99697 1057 0 2 Going back more than 2000 years, Scottish Gaelic is one of the oldest European languages. In the late 19th century there was a Scots Gaelic revival where both the language and culture of Scotland blossomed. At the time, the recently born recording industry quickly echoed this popular interest and spread it internationally. Bill Dean-Myatt and Nigel Barrett have compiled this historic collection of early Scots Gaelic recordings which includes a 28 page llustrated booklet giving historic backgrounds to each track.

These bravura pieces, full of ba lance and finesse, are pure products of the musette tradition that reigned in the popular dancehalls of Paris before the war: the foundations of the "gypsy-jazz school". Django Reinhardt himself was one of many instrumentalists whose first skirmishes rang to the sounds of this repertoire, played on banjo or guitar. With these essential gypsywaltz pieces, a work of reference first released in 1999, Romane gives us the chance to hear some of the diamonds in the crown of the six string guitar.
