Review by Piotr Paszkiewicz

Kenny Graham's AfroCubists have delivered an outstanding album with Volume 2 Afro Kadabra Caribbean Suite. The album is a blend of Afro-Cuban rhythms, Caribbean vibes, and jazz influences that create a unique and exciting sound.

The musicianship is exceptional, with each member of the band showcasing their skills on their respective instruments. The percussion section is particularly impressive, delivering a rhythmic foundation that is both complex and infectious.

The album features a mix of original compositions and covers, all of which are given a fresh and exciting interpretation by the band. The title track, "Afro Kadabra," is a standout, with its driving rhythm and catchy melody.
