Opa - GOLDWINGS (Jazz Dispensary Top Shelf Series Remaster) LP

A vibrant fusion of jazz, rock, and Afro-Latin rhythms, this release from OPA showcases the boundary-pushing sound of the Fattoruso Brothers alongside percussionist Rubén Rada. Blending candombe influences with jazz improvisation and funk grooves, the album feels both deeply rooted and globally minded. Tracks like “Goldenwings” and “African Bird” highlight the group’s rhythmic complexity and melodic richness, while longer pieces stretch into exploratory territory with dynamic arrangements and fluid musicianship. The suite-like “Pieces” moves through multiple sections, emphasizing the band’s versatility and tight interplay. Energetic, sophisticated, and groove-heavy, this is a standout example of 1970s Latin jazz fusion with a distinctly Uruguayan identity.
