Llans Thelwell & The Celestials • Llans Plays It All

 



Miraculously recorded in 1965 when Ska was at its best, this is one of the rarest and killer LP to date. Llands Plays It All is constructed with a Caribbean coast vibe such as Ska, Jazz, Afro, R&B, Soul, Jump Up, Cha Cha Cha to name a few. However this killer Montegonian band is surprisingly tight, presenting second to none great performances. The album starts with “Jive Samba” by Cannonball Adderley, brilliantly arranged in the Afro-Caribbean Jazz style. Then moving on to some Jamaican R&B, to the featured track of the album “Mughead Ska”, a slightly longer version than the 7” cut (DSR-RN7-01), furthermore there is “Golden Horns”, this is an ultimate selection for all DJ’s and Selectors. This is definitely a must-have for the shelves of all Jamaican music lovers.

Milagrosamente grabado en 1965 cuando el Ska estaba en su mejor momento, este es uno de los LP más raros y demoledores hasta la fecha. Llands Plays It All está construido con una vibración de la costa caribeña como Ska, Jazz, Afro, R&B, Soul, Jump Up, Cha Cha Cha por nombrar algunos. Sin embargo, esta banda montegiana asombrosa está sorprendentemente ajustada, presentando grandes actuaciones que no tienen parangón. El álbum comienza con "Jive Samba" de Cannonball Adderley, brillantemente arreglado en el estilo de jazz afro-caribeño. A continuación, se pasa a un poco de R&B jamaicano, al tema principal del álbum "Mughead Ska", una versión ligeramente más larga que el corte de 7" (DSR-RN7-01), además está "Golden Horns", esta es una selección definitiva para todos los DJ's y Selectores. Definitivamente es un disco que no puede faltar en las estanterías de todos los amantes de la música jamaicana.
