Description

Surfing on the shores of Java and Casablanca -two unexpected tales from the beat generation. Tony Turpijn and his Evergreens fulfill the dream of every pantropical music lover with a silky, instrumental rhythm ‘n blues take on the Sundanese love song “Es Lilin” (Ice Lolly). Link Wray meets Mulatu Astatke meets Oslan Husein in Rotterdam, 1965. Obscure formation Les Jaguars de Casablanca beat the Shadows with a version of the surf classic “Gonzales”. The band consists of a French/Spanish guitar section and a Moroccan rhythm section featuring the drummer/percussionist Jauk Armal, the “Okay Temiz from Casablanca”. Silk screen sleeve.
