1st time reissue of this rare album. It's a mix of Gwo ka, jazz and soul, if you like this also check out the compilation Koute Jazz. Tip!

A native of Guadeloupe, Edmony Krater greww up with the sound of Gwo Ka, this traditional Caribbean percussion.

Young trumpeter, Edmony founded with friends the group GWAKASONNE in the late 70s, which was mixing gwo ka tradition and modern music (jazz, soul, spiritual). Then Edmony settled in France where he will plays with many Caribbean musicians but also Bernard Lubat and Nougaro. In 1988, he recorded the album "Ti Jan Pou velo" which is a tribute to the musicians of �roots� music whose percussionist Tijan disappeared some years earlier. This album is an album aside from Caribbean music by its coherence, originality and modernity
