トリニダードの音楽史でも最重要人物の一人、ANDRE TANKER。アイランド・ファンクの名曲としてUKの名門 SOUNDWAY レーベルが取り上げ、またレア・グルーブ方面からも注目され続けてる存在だ。本作は1969年に、ANDRE TANKER が率いた ANDRE TANKER FIVE によるカリプソなどカリブ的な芳醇な香り漂う超クールなラテン・ジャズ/ファンク作。ANDRE TANKER 自身のヴィブラフォンに是非注目して欲しい。ソカのスター、DAVID RUDDER によると、この ANDRE TANKER がトリニダードの音楽に与えた影響は、BOB DYLAN がアメリカン・ミュージックに与えた影響に相当するものと評されるほど。オリジナルは600USD以上の取引も、コレは嬉しい再発だ。

When this album was first released in 1969, the young combo around vibraphonist and singer Andre Tanker conveyed a new style mix, which apparently naturally merged quite different musical influences into a new whole. At the centre of the music of the Andre Tanker Five was jazz in its Caribbean, Trinidadian style, a combination of the modern jazz of those days and the sounds of the extremely popular steeldrum bands of the time. A very decisive addition is typical for Trinidad: Calypso. Calypso stands for the attitude to life of this young generation of musicians, for the 'Good Time Feeling' and the desire to incorporate danceable Caribbean rhythms and Afro-Latin grooves into their individual style.
