Rebles
Sweetest Taboo (soca)
Reissue of the massively in-demand soca cover-version of Sade's classic cut 'Sweetest Taboo' by Caribbean band Rebles
from 1986. In the late '80s, as electronic music permeated popular culture, Rebles helped define the soca genre outside
of the Caribbean. Also known as D' Rebel's Band and led by St. Vincentian band-leader and trombonist Denniston Young,
the group were the 1980s house band for probably the largest Caribbean label, Strakers Records, based in Brooklyn, New
York. Strakers released hundreds of calypso and soca releases over a thirty year period from 1970 to 2000. Finally
available again after becoming a big record with a number of open-minded contemporary DJs who play soca, zouk, highlife
and soukous alongside disco and house, the 12" has been officially licensed and remastered ready to hit the summer party
season head-on.
