Monster rare groove album is now back in stock after years of being unavailable, some of the samples used on hip hop tracks are most likely to come from this incredible 1972 LP.

Cymande were one of the foremost Black British bands of the 70's, incredibly talented musically and taking inspiration from their Guyanese and Jamaican roots and producing a blend of jazz, funk and soul with a rootsy, positive message that still resonates now. They had another lease of life when hiphop DJ's started to play some of their tracks and sample them. Recently the BFI released a brilliant documentary about them.
