Maybe i'm late on this one but the other day I was discovered the
new Señor Coconut double-album called "El baile Alemán" and in
love with it's cheese filled carib-latino cover beauty. For those
who arent familiar with this release, it is an entire album of
Calypso/Latino/Mambo/Cuban/Salsa re-interpretations of classic
Kraftwerk tracks. Also there is a newer cd single with more
Kraftwerk remakes. Time to mambo with the robots! >>
I haven't checked my e-mail in a while, so maybe this
thread has been developed more, but....
This album originally had a Japanese release, which had ten
tracks, this domestic release appears to have the same track
list. It is awesome stuff. There is also a 12" I was listening to
yesterday on Multicolor of "Tour De France" that appeared to
have five different versions of that track. Absolutely wonderful,
maybe my favorite Atom Heart release yet, totally turns Kraftwerk
in on its head: instead of eerie, detached, cold futurism we have
soulful, Latin blood-pumping mambos and rumbas.
