Description

A great roots lp! Count Owen - Mento Time (Kalypso FR111, Jamaican, 196?) From mentomusic.com: "Owen's second LP, Mento Time (on Kalypso) is still rural mento, but a little less so. Its dominated by (non-bamboo) flute and sax, except for the last two tracks. There's also banjo (it sounds like Euton Gayle is still onboard), bass, some hand drum, but strangely, I did not hear Owen's guitar in the mix. Though not listed, the first track, ("Chi Chi Bud") segues into "Dog War". This is one of the few LPs that eschews the label "calypso" for the more accurate "mento". These lp's are rarely seen. This is Owen's second lp; his first went for $81 last time it was offered here.
