Spiteri (1973)

  Spiteri released sadly only one album in what was a very short lived music career ...but what an album they left behind. This album is just a fantastic psych album with some crazy Venezuelan-influenced rock and soul going on....somewhere of a cross of Santana meets Malo meet Almeda.  This album was recorded in London in 1973 and is sung in both English and Spanish.   Spiteri gained the support of artists such as Noel Redding, Paul McCartney, Rod Stewart, Bob Marley, Steve Winwood and others back in the day.  The album has some great hand congo drums and a big underground rock vibe.  Lots of vocal harmonies, Latin rhythms, strings, psychy flute and searing guitars to top it all off.  The sound quality on this remastered version on Vampi soul records is excellent and I recommend this album to all early Santana and Malo fans.    The album is a lot of fun  and a real cooker !
