Album Reviews

Review: 

This record by Iluyenkori, opens up an enchanted world that of primordial waters placed by the Lucumis under the power of these two divinities Yemaya for salt water and Ochun for fresh water: two symbols of life, from the source to the ocean, which remind us, in these times of necessary ecological awareness of that wihout water there si no life, a truth from the mythology of the Yoruba of Africa transmited to the Cuban Lucumis via the slave trade. Released in 1994.
