Description

Super rare and in-demand calypso session from The Mighty Sparrow. However, this is not your run of the mill calypso joint, far from, this album is chock full of soul cuts with big drums, big bass, and dancefloor presence written all over it. Highly coveted for the version of "Soulful Strut" with the bananas open drum break for bars upon bars. Can't tell you how many people are up on this one but can't find it. Here's your chance to score on this beat-tape celebrity. Also of groovy worth is "Don't Sleep In The Subway" & the uptempo funk cut "For My Sake". The remainder of the material is top-notch calypso from the slow winding ballads to the carnival-style party numbers. Do the do on this break monster and beat your buddies to the punch when you floss it on your next mix!

Original U.S. Pressing: Hilary Records

Cover/Record Condition: EX(in shrink)/VG++(some small marks and surface noise but "Soulful Strut plays super-excellent!)

I have been collecting and selling in the new york and detroit areas for a number of years and have decided to unload a healthy chunk of my private collection. Check my future auctions for more funk, jazz, latin, disco, psych,breaks, and hip hop LP's.
