Names You Can Trust presents the second release in their “Panama Gold Series” and the first official reissue of one of the heaviest holy grails to come out of the isthmus, the Jungle Rat USA. This impossibly rare 45 was originally issued in 1971 as a promotional 7-inch on the independent imprint Discos Nino. Its origin story has remained utterly elusive and unknown — until now. The newly remastered press contains both original sides: the raw funk masterpiece “Just Love One Another,” and “Have a Little Faith,” one of the finest old school examples of the coveted souldies style that has taken the modern day record world by storm. Licensed and researched with the help of the Jungle Rat’s musical director Dwight Brewster, this deluxe reissue includes a lush 10-page photo booklet with liner notes, detailing the full account of the twists and turns of Brewster and his band’s journey from New York City to Panama.

I can only hope that many more lost tracks of Los Criollos will surface. This fantastic Panamanian salsa band deserves wider recognition. Fans of Buena Vista Social Club may enjoy this album as well.
