Gramophone Allstars
Just Delightin'
The Gramophone Allstars band was born in 2008 in Barcelona; however, their members are from different parts of Catalonia. The musical proposal of this group is the mixture of ska music and jazz, but also closed styles such as rocksteady, soul and boogaloo. As a consequence, we can find all this musical universe in their concerts. In the same year that the band is born their first long-play, entitled Just delightin. (Silver Bullets, 2008) appears. All along its twelve tracks - eight of them are own compositions and the rest are covers - we can listen to the main styles practiced by Jamaican musicians during the sixties: ska, ska-jazz, rocksteady, reggae and a bit of soul and latin stuff. Although we are talking about a young band, their members have a long experience in the Jamaican music scene all around Catalonia. However, they have experience in other music styles such as jazz, fusion, rock, pop and funk. Enjoy it!!
