Product Description

In the late 1960s race riots plagued major U.S. cities; in Harlem, these events forced educators to think of new and exciting ways to keep kids off the streets and interested in their education. Harlem Youth Opportunities Unlimited was a series of educational programs designed for that purpose. The Harlem Youth Percussion Group grew out of that zeitgeist. Musical Director Montego Joe recorded thissuper-energetic, talented, and raw Afro-Cuban ensemble in1965. The resulting album is a collectible that stands the test of time because the tracks are good from top-to-bottom.

60年代末にコンガ奏者モンテゴ・ジョーの指導のもと、NYハーレムの不良少年更正プログラムの一環として、16～19歳の若者で結成されたのがこちらのグループ。アルバム全編に渡って、ハーレムの猥雑な雰囲気たっぷりのエネルギッシュな演奏を堪能することが出来る。その中でも一際輝くのは、やはり”Welcome To The Party”。濃厚なラテンサウンドをお求めの方にぜひお勧めしたい一枚です。
