Soul, Boogaloo, Funk, CD kiadvány, 2009.
BGP returns to the scene of our January compilation “The Soul Of Spanish Harlem” to release the complete original album from which one of the standout cuts has been lifted. The 107th Street Stickball Team is one of the rarest of the rare Latin soul collectables, released in tiny numbers by Ralph Lew’s Dorado label and it is one of the finest releases to have been masterminded by Bobby Marin. This is the first ever reissue of its spectacular mix of soul, boogaloo and funk.
As well as being a legend in the world of latin music, producer and songwriter Bobby Marin was also in his younger days a champion of stickball, a street-based version of baseball played in and about the tenements of America’s big cities. Bobby’s neighbourhood was East or Spanish Harlem and his home was 107th Street, hence the name of the group that made this super-rare album.
