real instruments !, December 26, 2001
This review is from: 20 Tracks of Cocoa Tea (Audio CD)
this is early cocoa tea, backed by the awesome roots radics band. unlike the later computerized rhythms, here a real drum and a fat bass hit hard as tea's sweet voice floats over top of the rhythms. track 18 is a take on the tune Spanish Harlem, with tea singing about a herb in his garden. track 12 is a sweet lovers tune, with tea's falsetto in full effect.
the only criticism some reviewers have of the early material is the somewhat weak lyrics. a good example of early 80's dancehall before the digital days.
