MAMBO TAXI, Sly and Robbie's 1997 album, is such a brilliant idea that one wonders why nobody ever did it before. Rhythm section and production team Sly Dunbar and Robbie Shakespeare pepper this album liberally with reggae and dub reworkings of classic film themes, and rather than sounding like a cheap gimmick, the combination actually works wonders. The themes they choose range from the inescapable--Lalo Schifrin's "Theme from Mission: Impossible" and Ennio Morricone's "The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly"--to more obscure melodies like the theme from Billy Wilder's 1961 film THE APARTMENT. Sly and Robbie tread a fine line between straight-up cover and radical revision, careful never to lean too far in one direction or the other. The originals, like Dunbar's moody "Fire in the Oven," are similarly cinematic with a blend of reggae and soundtrack-style jazz that often feels like a more daring version of previous Sly and Robbie instrumental albums like 1988's THE SUMMIT. MAMBO TAXI is a delight for fans of both reggae and soundtrack music.
