Beautiful sounds from the short-lived musical legacy of Salum Abdallah and his Cuban Marimba Band -- a group from Tanzania, but one who play with lots of influence from Latin Music -- as you might guess from their name!
And yet, unlike some of the larger, fuller Latin-influenced groups that were springing up on the West African scene of the 60s, this combo has a sound that's pretty stripped-down -- often just heavy percussion and work on guitar -- which appears to be a unique hybrid of the Cuban style of the instrument, which gets plucked and inflected in great ways next to the vocals! The well-done set might be the best we've seen so far from the Domino Sound label.
