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



Another Sato Rhythm so dear to Lohento Eskill on "Dieu Merci" (Thank's God) label. You never get tired of Lohento's hypnotic voice.



Encore un rythme Sato si cher à Lohento Eskill sur le label "Dieu Merci". On ne se lasse jamais de la vcoix hypnotique de Lohento.

T.P. POLY-RYTHMO: "Karateka" (1975)


Un ami m'a ramené ce célèbre disque du Poly-Rythmo qui contient le fabuleux titre "Karateka", composé par le guitariste soliste du groupe: "Papillon". Le vinyl est tellement de mauvaise qualité que je n'ai pas pu le numériser. HEUREUSEMENT, OGOUN FERRAILLE m'a envoyé un coup de pied retourné du fameux "Karateka" en excellente qualité. "Double esquive !!!"


A friend brought me this famous Poly-Rythmo record that contains fabulous title "Karateka", composed by the lead-guitarist of the band: "Papillon". The vinyl is so bad that I can't rip it. FORTUNATLY, Ogoun Ferraille sent me a front kick of the famous "Karateka" in excellent quality. "Double dodge!".


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
