Album Notes
Perhaps no other musical genre has inspired as much cross-cultural pollination as the easy-going grooves of reggae. Exemplifying the music's global stature and accessibility, world music specialists Putumayo have gathered a diverse roster of Spanish-speaking reggae acts for their compilation LATIN REGGAE. Each of the 11 artists represented offers a unique take on Jamaican grooves, all with a distinctly Latin flair. From the upbeat skank of Argentina's Los Cafres, to the mixed-up multicultural beats of the Barcelona group Black Gandhi, the compilation showcases a refreshing take on the socially charged, spiritually conscious themes of Jamaican music.
Industry Reviews
[W]ith each band blending its own cultural rhythms and styles into the sensuous enveloping vapors of reggae music.
[I]t's a solid 49 minutes of classic reggae sounds with lyrics that address a variety of socially conscious concerns.
