Soundway have come to their last release of 2019, and they've saved the best till last.

Ft. a 12" single with both sides absolute dancefloor belters, think Latin disco meets parang soca from Barbados (original label from Trinidad/Tobago).

Both tracks - Colleen Grant "Latin Parang", and Sandra Hamilton "Parang Jam" - are not only highly sought after on vinyl, we are also officially reissuing both tracks officially for the first time on vinyl and digital since their original early 1980s releases.

Restored, remastered and sounding as fresh if not fresher than before! Attached are the sales notes, with salient details below.

Odessey One is probably one of the hottest, most appreciated and sought-after bands when it comes to caribbean funky Disco and Boogie music from Trinidad and Tobago.
These super talented musicians recorded a few incredibly good grooves in the Caribbean Sound Studio in the early 80s, which were long considered lost or very hard to find.
It was a bunch of friends around the composer, guitarist and singer Arnold Shuffler, like Nicholas Rostant, Carla Fauche and Colleen Grant, who came together in Port of Spain for a few jam sessions as a studioband.
Only a handful of vinyl copies were pressed from the tapes at KH studios pressing plant, which did not have much airplay at the time.
Sound Essence is more than happy about a renewed collaboration with mastermind Arnold Shuffler and to present this soulful island, disco, boogie synth funk to the music-lovers
community worldwide!
