Description
Cymande (pronounced Sah-mahn-day) are a legendary funk group formed in 1971 in London by musicians from Guyana, Jamaica and Saint Vincent. Their name was derived from a calypso word for Dove, symbolizing peace and love.
The band were signed by producer John Schroeder to his Alaska label in the UK (and Janus in North America). Cymande went on to release three albums in the early-to-mid 1970's.
Their debut, Cymande (1972), boasted perhaps their best-known funk anthem, The Message, and the much-sampled Bra, adopted by pioneering DJs like DJ Kool Herc and Grandmaster Flash before being plundered by De La Soul. This reissue boasts two non-album single edits and new sleeve-notes written with the cooperation with the band and John Schroeder. -
