LES AIGLONS DE BASSE TERRE - CHOMBO MERENGUE

This song is an excract from the compilation "Tumbélé". A selection of rare biguine, afro & latin sounds from the french caribbean, recorded between 1963-1974. This period was musically rich and the music which come from theses islands reflect the mixing of african, latin & european influences..

Despite these songs are from an old period, it makes you want to get off your sit and dance!
