ソウルのフレーヴァーが効いた演奏がカッコ良いSoul Syndicateです。
“Tonight”等のレゲエスタンダード・カバー、
スタンダードジャズの“Take 5”や
Skatalitesでも御馴染みの“Guns Of Navarone”等をやっています
名盤「Harvest uptown」をよりも洗練度を増した、The Soul Syndicateのセカンド・アルバム
1980年にリリースされた本作は、
UKのルーツ・サウンドにも通じるメロディアスでカラフルなサウンドが魅力。
ジャズのスタンダード“Take five”を、
ダブを交えたレゲエ・アレンジでカヴァーした“The Soviets are coming”や、
軽やかなファルセット・ヴォイスによるコーラス・ワークに彩られた“That's life”、
Ken Boothのロックステディ・チューンをカヴァーした“Just another girl”等、
素晴らしい曲を多数収録。
ルーツ・レゲエに斜陽の時が訪れつつあった時期の、
美しさと儚さを感じられる１枚
Soul Syndicate
大好きだ～
