Rico Rodríguez • That Man Is Forward

 

 

Legendary ska trombonist Emmanuel "Rico" Rodriguez became a regular contributor to the Two Tone label - recognition of his role in the rise of the Jamaican sound before he relocated to London in the mid 1960s. Rodriguez recorded two albums for the Coventry imprint in 1981, both of which have now been reissued in remastered "40th anniversary editions". That Man's Forward, the first of these, naturally puts Rodriguez at the heart of the action, with his distinctive trombone parts - plus some rather good sax solos - rising above an easy-going blend of reggae, dub, ska and rocksteady instrumentals.

El legendario trombonista de ska Emmanuel "Rico" Rodríguez se convirtió en un colaborador habitual del sello Two Tone, en reconocimiento a su papel en el auge del sonido jamaicano antes de trasladarse a Londres a mediados de la década de 1960. Rodríguez grabó dos álbumes para el sello Coventry en 1981, ambos reeditados ahora en "ediciones de 40 aniversario" remasterizadas. That Man's Forward, el primero de ellos, sitúa naturalmente a Rodríguez en el centro de la acción, con sus distintivas partes de trombón -además de algunos buenos solos de saxo- elevándose por encima de una desenfadada mezcla de instrumentales de reggae, dub, ska y rocksteady.
