[1988] The Wave / Second Wave (FULL ALBUM)

The 2nd of two extremely rare albums by the Miami, FL based fusion group led by Manuel Lopez the Orta brothers. I had forgotten about this group for many years, though I used to hear several tracks off both albums on 94Q. This is a rare CD copy of the album, which was mainly released on Cassette and LP. Their first album ‘The Wave’ from 1987 is definitely the tightest of the two, I’ll try to upload it in its entirety as well. Another example of a tight, polished fusion group that dropped a couple of albums then vanished off the radar. Both albums are hard to find anywhere, especially this one! 0:00 Life’s Fair 5:24 Outsider 13:03 I Thought of You 16:00 Tell Me Something Good 21:39 Second Chance 28:33 Believe It 33:50 Hot Coals 39:26 Toys Manuel Lopez: Guitars Nicky Orta: Bass Michael Orta: Keyboards Rafael Solano: Percussion Chip McNeill: Sax, EWI Orlando: Drums, Vocals Richard Serotta: Bass solo Adrian Garcia: Synth Bass Gerson Migliacio, Linwood Ross, Kelley Stewart, Carole Ann: Backing vocals
