CORRE RIBA CORRE BAXO (7 inch)

A:Abel Lima E Les Sofas - Corre Riba Corre Baxo
B:Abel Lima Des Iles Du Cap Vert - Nos Maos



Supreme Cape-Verdean funk from the 70s, two of Abel Lima's most distinctive cuts are re-energised by Sofrito. "Corre Riba Corre Baxo" translates to what comes up must come down... But there's no come down here; pure positivity oozes from every highlife guitar strum and the overwhelming presence of the walking bassline. "Nos Maos" is a tad more subdued as the French and Portuguese lyrics pin down a tight, horn-led Caribbean groove. Act fast: as with all Super Singles, this one is super-limited!
