About
- The Analog Vault // Essential Listening -
Although they were largely underappreciated during their initial run in the 1970s, Cymande’s legacy has grown exponentially larger in the half century since. Sampled by hip-hop luminaries like Grandmaster Flash, De La Soul, Wu-Tang Clan, Gang Starr and The Fugees - their music has thankfully been rediscovered by subsequent generations, who’ve retroactively enshrined the British-based octet as a cornerstone of the funk fusion cannon. Composed of self-taught musicians from Guyana, Jamaica and St. Vincent - the band’s journey begins with their wonderful self-titled debut in 1972.
Cymande introduced the world to their distinctive blend of funk, soul, jazz and rock - which the group rooted in the reggae, calypso and African polyrhythms of their collective heritage. The result was the birth of what they called “nyah-rock,” which takes flight on this enthralling album. — The Analog Vault
