“Space Flight”  Carlos Malcolm and His Afro-Jamaican Rhythms (“The Sound of the Soil”)  Carlos plays Trombone and (little did I know til just now) wrote most of the incidental music to the James Bond movie “Dr. No”   He had a big mid-sixties hit with his version of the “Bonanza” TV Theme called…”Bonanza Ska”  I like his song “No Jestering” a hit in 1974.  And who can forget his other million seller, “Fattie Bum Bum”.

“Acid”  Ray Barretto Fania Records  (1968)  A classic.  A well-know dance floor firestarter, but also a great cover worthy of another look.  Features “Acid”, “Teacher of Love”, “Mercy, Mercy, Baby”, “Soul Drummers”, “A Deeper Shade of Soul” -  the whole LP is an afro-latin, soul, funk and boogaloo fusion that makes you wanna move your feet.  “Have you heard them cooking / The Soul Drummers / well they play so cool / Soul Drummers / so hard to resist / Soul Drummers / with the African twist.”  A jewel in the amazing Fania catalog.  Drop “Acid” at your next party and see what happens.
