A powerful cover that vividly rewrites the R&B classic with steel pan
A project by members of the German funk collective Mighty Mocambos. 7-inch covers of songs by Faith Evans and Cat Stevens, centered around steelpan.
This single from Bacao Rhythm & Steel Band, led by Björn Wagner of the Mighty Mocambos, features powerful steelpan-driven funk on both sides. Side A features Faith Evans' "Love Like This," preserving the rhythmic feel of the original while expanding the arrangement's appeal with the warmth of the steelpan. Side B, "Dog Was A Doughnut," replaces Cat Stevens' unique electro groove with the texture of live instrumentation, highlighting the band's signature tight beats and low-slung groove.
