Damn IJ, this is magnificent. LBM is one of my favorite groups. Have you ever listened to the Graceland concert with Paul Simon? This collaboration with Machel and Kerwin is certainly a home run. Thanks bud. I think I can go to bed now.

I remember, years ago, calling into WLIB Sparrow on as a guest. My question to him was: Since there is an unquestionable music link between West African and Kaiso progressions, had he ever given thought to "re-combining" some of those progressions (and instruments) and creating a sound that could shake the world, like never before? His reply was: Currently we are only interested in leaving the Calypso imprint all over the world. I had had a follow-up question if he had aligned with the thought/my question. I didn't ask it. But it was: Would you consider submitting your famous Calypso SLAVE for such treatment; in concert with Her Ladysmith Black Mombasa?
So hearing Montano's work here is pure joy. African voices, like LBM's, in "real" Calypso African Fusion, would be an indescribable treat. IMHO. Big up Mr. Montano; taking the muscic full circle. Now think about it. No! Imagine Sessen and LBM bringing it home one day. Wattating dat woulda/coulda been.
