Dany Play – Le Noir (Guyana, 1970s, Disques Dan’s)

To close this sunday, a track from Dany “Play” Sinai, a famous musician from Guyana who recorded several albums and singles from the 60’s.
“Le Noir” – the track presented here – is taken from a very obscure and very hard to find compilation out on the 70’s on a private label and recorded in one session in the Eldorado cinema (Cayenne, Guyana).
Dany Sinai is still active today in the musical fields, owns the “Polina” nightclub (Matoury, Guyana) and also a haulage firm.
