When this album was first released in 1969, the young combo around vibraphonist and singer Andre Tanker conveyed a new style mix, which apparently naturally merged quite different musical influences into a new whole. At the centre of the music of the Andre Tanker Five was jazz in it's Caribbean, Trinidadian style, a combination of the modern jazz of those days and the sounds of the extremely popular steeldrum bands of the time. A very decisive addition is typical for Trinidad: Calypso. Calypso stands for the attitude to life of this young generation of musicians, for the 'Good Time Feeling' and the desire to incorporate danceable Caribbean rhythms and Afro-Latin grooves into their individual style. Although the original sounds of the young Andre Tanker Five are deeply rooted in the music of the West Indies, Afro-American elements always remain in the foreground. The young combo is musically equally at home in the Caribbean as in the 'hip' jazz clubs of the US megacities and the juke joints of the south with their sultry blues as well as the soul dance halls in Detroit or Memphis. The combination of vibraphone and electric guitar plus bass/drums is also rather unusual in those days. Not a pure instrumental album, 'Afro Blossom West' delivers some surprising vocals - rather unusual for a groove-jazz-based project with a sophisticated rhythmic sound. Bandleader and vibraphonist Andre Tanker is considered a very creative and versatile musician. His exciting improvisations are a dominant feature of this group. Party In The City, Lena and Swahili are original compositions of which he sings the first two himself. Guitarist Clarence Wears is a gifted accompanist and effective soloist. His sometimes 'funky soul style' is more reminiscent of 'Memphis' than 'Trinidad'. read more on www. Bear-family. #de

ABSOLUTE MUST READ
Format: Hardcover
Probably the best book I have ever read on the subject. Unlike most books written by college professors who love to give their opinion, tell ya how it is, Stannard lets the actual notes of the past speak for themselves. Also probably the best sourced book I have ever read (and I have read many). It can be a bit of a tough read, horror show that our history is but itʼs mandatory knowledge. Without spoiling it, the book is laid out in a most unexpected but awesome way that really nails it. It gets into the WTF were these people thing in a most thorough way. VERY VERY well thought through. I thought it ended in a bit of an odd spot (time), but iʼm sure that was intentional. Should be in every high school classroom in America.

Textbook
Format: Paperback
There was plenty of work put into this book and a lot of research. The reason why I did not give the fifth star is due to the reading of the book. To me I felt like I was back in school reading a textbook which after a time became tedious. It started to get to the point of reading too fast just to get the pages to go by. I probably missed some information as I found the book boring at times. The advice that I would give somebody is to read the book slowly and not to read too many pages and then put it down to pick it up another day. This way you can absorb the information better.

The Unalterable Truth
Format: Paperback
The publisher's description of this book claims that there would be a severe reaction within American society due to the facts Professor Stannard brought to light. There was, unfortunately yet not unexpectedly, not much of a response to the horrifying truths revealed in his compelling narrative on the fate of the Western Hemisphere's indigenous people. Most Americans simply do not seem to care whether their nation's history, from the moment Columbus set foot in "The New World" and claimed that the people he encountered would make good slaves to the immediate present, is bathed in copious amounts of indigenous people's blood. The European's behavior when they were unleashed upon the unsuspecting Native Americans reveals not only their homicidal nature and destructive approach to a relatively pristine world; but their unfathomably horrid and continuous attempts to keep the destruction and death going. Extermination was the name of the game and even a cursory glance at the American newspapers of the nineteenth century reveals a national psychology which leaves one in a vast and endless state of confusion and disbelief. But it's all true. The phrase, "The Final Solution" was coined by nineteenth century Americans, not Hitler's Germany. Tens of millions perished, an eternal food source, the buffalo herds, were almost rendered extinct and while all this was occurring the people of Africa were chained to their masters' bidding. The people of Iraq understand. So do the Vietnamese and now the Syrians and many, many, many more. Of course, on publication Dr. Stannard was labeled a crank for mostly revealing that American "exceptionalism" is merely a high falootin' excuse for mass death and destruction.

Horrifying but it is a must read
Format: Paperback
This book should be required reading for all high-school students rather than the friendly history books that treat Columbus as a hero. This man was a murderous psychopath. Strong words but after reading this powerful text you will agree. I am ashamed at what these monsters from Spain, and England and elsewhere did soon after Columbus "discovered" the Americas. And all of the sacred knowledge lost. Everything the Mayans wrote down was burned. Knowledge from prehistory--all gone. All of the knowledge from prehistory the Indians in the Amazon basin held, all of the technology on agriculture, building, medicine, sacred knowledge, and much more gone. And for what?
I cannot tell you how powerful this book is. I cannot get it out of my head. If you think black lives matter well, sorry folks indigenous Indians of the New World MATTER MORE. They should be rioting for compensation from Spain and England. Oh, I forgot, nobody's left to riot.
It was a complete deliberate genocide killing perhaps 80 million paleo-indians from the 15th century on. And they are still killing the rest of them in Mesoamerica and esp. the Amazon where oil and mineral companies are murdering the remainder. And nobody seems to care! Read this book and learn the truth finally.

In 600yrs. , life itself, is elusive
Format: Paperback
American Holocaust or books related to the Native American should be required reading. The carnage or genocide, on the inflicted erased thousands of years of culture. We have lost so much which makes us, all less. Hispaniola, had a population of 8,000,00, in 1496. By 1535 they were extinct. Equivalent to N.Y. city today. Spanish and British. One looking for gold, the latter imposing European values, to steal land. But what was most fascinating, the religious hypocrisy. To kill, enslave, torture in the name of God. Who snatches babies from their mother, and feeds them to dogs, hanging natives from a gibber, and burned alive, brand enslaved women's faces every time they are resold ? The British and Spanish were the "Very ministers of Hell".
