Wow what a find! So hard to get your hands on a copy of Dia Prometido's third record. It's such a progression from their first. Here you have crazy funk hits, psychedelic spoken word and Ennio Morricone epicness. I almost sh*t my pants the first time I heard this, don't mistake this for a folk record, it is a total full band masterpiece! "Hey Al-Lah" could be the first track on a Finders Keepers Comp, with it's pumped up vox and that dulcimer break, oooh sh*t! "Patrulla Casaca" is simply amazing, makes me think if Italians scored the movie Conan the Barbarian. This guy could set you back $200 to $300 bucks but it is ever so worth it. From my personal collection rip @320K Enjoy and don't forget to leave a comment! Thanks Chris Tillotson GET IT HERE!
Preview 2 tracks "Hey Al-Lah" & "Patrulla Casaca"
One of my favourite new discoveries! Dia Prometido was a collaboration between Chilean guitarist, Javier Navarro and Iranian percussionist, Guillermo Polo. This is the original Spanish pressing on Philips label from 1971. There was also an Iranian pressing with a different track list. What we have here are a bunch of cover songs featuring a Dulcimer, but these are the dopest versions of these songs I have ever heard. I absolutely love every track, so heavy! I've included the best track from the Iranian pressing,"Hava Nagila" because it is just too essential to leave out. Somehow none of there albums have been reissued just yet so you'll have to dish out the dough for an original and expensive and rare they are indeed. All you library nuts, do not pass this up, just listen to the undeniable mozart cover,"Sinfonia No.40 En Sol Menor K.550" or the beautiful groove of,"Concierto Para Una Voz". So please enjoy another oriental treat from my personal collection, ripped @320K and don't forget to leave a comment! GET IT HERE!
