Leading a multi-racial austere trio judiciously augmented by occasional African drummers, Jamaican dub toasters, hammond organ players, brass bands and soul backup singers, Carmel's sound was something different. While you can hear in this music the rock/new wave influences around it, this is definitely not new wave pop. This is some crazy unclassifiable stuff. Carmel's singing style is, frankly, caterwauling. The bass and drums sound, with the added organ etc. are distinctly retro: if this is jazz or soul you're gonna find more influences from the 1950s or early 1960s than from 1984. There's some hard-swinging numbers, and some trancy ones. I'm not convinced that all the drums here are acoustic, but there are otherwise no synthesizers gurgling away.</p> <p>download: <a href="http://ul.to/fm89q1kt" target="_blank" onclick="window.open(this.href,'newwin','left=27,width=960,height=720,menubar=1,toolbar=1,scrollbars=1,status=1,resizable=1');return false;">uploaded </a> <a href="https://yadi.sk/d/cYHeqxJgZLtNF" target="_blank" onclick="window.open(this.href,'newwin','left=27,width=960,height=720,menubar=1,toolbar=1,scrollbars=1,status=1,resizable=1');return false;">yandex </a> <a href="http://www.4shared.com/zip/e5ifYFBYba/TDIE-C84.html" target="_blank" onclick="window.open(this.href,'newwin','left=27,width=960,height=720,menubar=1,toolbar=1,scrollbars=1,status=1,resizable=1');return false;">4shared </a> <a href="http://www.mediafire.com/download/q4ub5lqp2s9vcab/TDIE-C84.zip" target="_blank" onclick="window.open(this.href,'newwin','left=27,width=960,height=720,menubar=1,toolbar=1,scrollbars=1,status=1,resizable=1');return false;">mediafire </a> <a href="http://www.solidfiles.com/d/f61760dc12/TDIE-C84.zip" target="_blank" onclick="window.open(this.href,'newwin','left=27,width=960,height=720,menubar=1,toolbar=1,scrollbars=1,status=1,resizable=1');return false;">solidfiles</a> <a href="https://mega.co.nz/#!yAdilJ5Y!0WT0USI6I7B3o29pahtcNRQQwxzwCdLxx13SuViGG58" target="_blank" onclick="window.open(this.href,'newwin','left=27,width=960,height=720,menubar=1,toolbar=1,scrollbars=1,status=1,resizable=1');return false;">mega </a> <a href="http://zalivalka.ru/159674" target="_blank" onclick="window.open(this.href,'newwin','left=27,width=960,height=720,menubar=1,toolbar=1,scrollbars=1,status=1,resizable=1');return false;">zalivalka </a> <a href="http://filecloud.io/7nck1a05" target="_blank" onclick="window.open(this.href,'newwin','left=27,width=960,height=720,menubar=1,toolbar=1,scrollbars=1,status=1,resizable=1');return false;">filecloudio</a> <a href="https://anonfiles.com/file/efe44bc20b81f485ff4fa480d8473021" target="_blank" onclick="window.open(this.href,'newwin','left=27,width=960,height=720,menubar=1,toolbar=1,scrollbars=1,status=1,resizable=1');return false;">anonfiles </a> <a href="https://www.oboom.com/19Y6LIY8/TDIE-C84.zip" target="_blank" onclick="window.open(this.href,'newwin','left=27,width=960,height=720,menubar=1,toolbar=1,scrollbars=1,status=1,resizable=1');return false;">oboom </a></p> <p><a href="http://theblues-thatjazz.com/javascript:history.back();">back</a></p>
