The Coyabalites are the house band of the Coyaba River Garden complex in Ochos Rios, and although they are a Jamaican super group of sorts, with a lineup that includes the Zap Pow horn section (Vin Gordon on trombone, Glen Da Costa on sax, David Madden on trumpet, plus Dean Fraser on sax, along with keyboardist Harold Butler, guitarist Ernest Ranglin and vocals from the great Justin Hinds, they are in effect a lounge jazz/ska show band. This means they have a tendency to smooth out the compositions they tackle rather than rave them up for the dance floor. Coyaba Ska is actually their complete debut album, Unhinged, with a few extra tracks thrown in.
