T.P. Poly-Rythmo & Lohento Eskill (1973)


Lohento Eskill never composed with Poly-Rythmo Orchestra. This EP proves his talent as afro-cuban music's composer. This vinyl is rare and beautiful. This recording from 1973 was released by "Dieu Merci" label ("thank's god" label) and it this post diserves this name. Unfortunately, Eskill left us in 2006 and his melancholic voice lacks Poly-Rythmo.


Lohento Eskill n'a jamais composé avec l'orchestre Poly-Rythmo. Ces deux fantastiques titres afro-cubains prouvent son talent de compositeur. Ce disque est rare et magnifique. Il a été produit par le label "Dieu Merci" et je pense que ce courrier mérite ce titre. Malheureusement, Eskill nous a quitté en 2006 et a voix mélancolique manque à Poly-Rythmo.

"I would also like to say that Eskill did compose several songs with Poly-Rythmo. One of his most known own composition is "Agbazamimin". But it's true that he was mainly a singer, the main vehicle of Poly's songs because of his voice and performance talents (along with Clement Melome, the main composer and the band's boss). And Indeed, he was a famous salsero, even though they have played a great number of rhythms." Lohento Ken

Hello - Thanks a lot for this - I would also like to say that Eskill did compose several songs with Poly R; one of his most known own composition is Agbazamimin. But it's true he was mainly a singer, the main vehicle of Poly's songs because of his voice and performance talents (along with Clement Melome, the main composer and the band's boss). And Indeed, he was a famous salsero, even though they have played a great number of rythmes - Regards - KL

As you would expect from this band, this is excellent. I think the only artist making music as good as this in the early 70s was Jorge Ben. Thanks a lot for posting it Oro.
