I traveled in Belize frequently in the early 2000s and saw The Garifuna collective several times, even one of the last performances by Andy Palacio in Dangriga. Rest in peace. It was a great time to travel there and hadn't quite been exploited yet. Now that American and Canadian expats have tried to make it their own, it doesn't have the charm that I remember.

I was also out in Belize and Guatemala in the early 2000's and attended the Battle of the Drums event in Dangriga a Garifuna musical experience indeed, this is where i met Emeth Young  from Punta Gorda, a creole drummer. Very good times indeed. 
Thanks for sharing your experience, it brings back superb musical memories.

Saw your name Quetzal. I spent 2 weeks in Monteverde Cloud Forest in 2000 guarding a Quetzal nest. I had a walkman with 2 CDs to listen to all day. Queen-Greatest Hits and Allanis Morisette-Jagged Little Pill. I also had a plastic plate tied to a plastic pole to scare monkeys away from the nest. I didn't see one monkey. Also spent time in Guatemala on the same trip with the Garifuna people. Great experience and great people

The intro reminded me of a certain Pink Floyd song.  Hope they fix the band info

Almost 2 decades ago I spent a too brief period of time in the Garifuna communities of Belize and Guatemala. Those were very good, laid back and inspiring times, full of music. Back home I frequented the local music library which now no longer exists but back then had a fine collection of Garifuna music cds. Then all kinds of other things happened and my interest dwindled, only to be revived some 20 years later by this song playing on the main mix of RP.....

It simply baffles me right now to suddenly hear this here.
And I love it that it does.

This track easily starts at 8, and I'll add one point for the sheer joy of RP playing it

Danny Michel recorded an album with The Garifuna Collective called Black Birds are Flying over Me. That album, along with this one (Ayo) were produced by Ivan Duran of Stonetree Records in Belize. Danny Michel was not involved in Ayo. 

Thanks for playing The Garifuna Collective and letting more people discover the music of Belize! 



Bump.

As others have noted, clicking more info takes you to a completely unrelated artist.

That slide guitar is nice.

The gleeful musicians on the album cover are laughing at William's painful attempts to dance to this song. 

Laughing at, not with.

As a Canadian, it amazes me how many Canadian artists I discover here on RP that I would never hear otherwise.
Thank you.... :-)
