V/a / Cult Cargo - Grand Bahamas Goombay

Numero Group

The second in the Cargo Cult series showcasing the Pan-American funk experience. Grand Bahama Goombay is a deep overview of Funky Nassau’s redheaded sister city Freeport. From 1969-1976 FRANK PENN’s GBI studio and label cranked out a dozen LPs and twice as many singles infected with the Miami sound drifting in over the 100 mile strait. The catalog is a fruity blend of rake and scrape, bush, junkanoo, calypso, reggae and goombay with a twist of American soul.
