Last saturday whilst browsing for music, I heard a rare groove tune I
knew from way back the dealer then introduced me to the groups oeuvre.
Two albums have been re-released on Sequel.

The guys (west indians based in London in the 60s and 70s) played what
they called Nyah-rock a blend of reggae and soul. No bad tune on the
two albums (cymande and second time around). Some of you guys will
recognise beats and parts as these guys have been heavily sampled.

You know that MC Solaar tune Bouge de la, with the crazy b-line... and
loads of stuff. Their best known tune is called Bra, I also procured a
12 inch import on JD Classic Records with an 8 minute edit of the
mutha' bit pricey but well worth it.

In short if you come across Cymande buy.
