Caminho De Esperança Coladance 80

The Cape Verdean masterpiece returns - ready to ignite dancefloors all over again.

This Record Store Day, vinyl collectors and world-music devotees can finally rediscover Caminho De Esperança Coladance 80 by Cabo Verde Show. Originally released in 1980 and long out of print, surviving copies became highly sought-after rarities, commanding hundreds of dollars on the collectors’ market.

Now reissued on vinyl for the first time, this electrifying fusion of Latin and African rhythms bursts back to life on limited-edition “Sunset” Crystal Clear Amber vinyl - newly restored and remastered for maximum warmth, punch, and clarity.

Formed in Paris in the late 1970s, Cabo Verde Show channelled traditional Cape Verdean roots into a vibrant, cosmopolitan sound built for movement.

On Caminho De Esperança Coladance 80, the group hits full stride, delivering unstoppable dance anthems like “Coladance 80,” “Nova Coladeira,” and “Terra Longe.” The grooves are infectious, the melodies radiant, the percussion relentless - pure joy from start to finish.

This is not just a rediscovery - it’s a celebration. An album that makes you move, sweat, and smile without restraint. A euphoric blend of rhythm, longing, and island spirit, reborn for a new generation of dancers.
