Larry McDonald - Drumquestra
Guardians of an Ancient Sound.
What happened to all the love, man? While the media is desperately trying to whip us up into a “summer of rage” over pseudo-recessions and inevitable dirty bomb attacks, we are all losing sight of the fact that everything is wonderful. We are all brothers and sisters and life is just one big celebratory party. Leave it to reggae ol’ timer and Gil Scott-Heron drummer Larry McDonald to let us all know what the score is with his exquisite debut solo album after 40 years in the game with a hefty, heavy selection of collaborators bring the trans-global music made entirely percussively. Congas, brazillian drums, mallets, marimbas, fundes, talking drums, rain sticks and many more create a full world of healing rhythms and positive vibrations. A mixed bag of vocalists, MCs and poets jump in and out of the beats spreading peace, love and unity. The perfect antidote to modern life.
