The band got its name from the Haitian dictator Papa Doc Duvallier's brutal presidential guard that something named "tonton Macoute". Their only album is full of jazz-inspired prog rock with long instrumental interplay in even longer tracks. Their music oozes fun and good-natured moods and should please most everyone, even the ones wary of jazz-tinged music, as this is hardly their only inspir ation.
The opener "Just Like a stone" dominated by flute is and el - piano and has a quite relaxed and laidback feel. "Don't make me cry" is jazzy, early 70′s prog as good as it gets. Lots of cool organ riffs with extended flute/sax/vibe, solos. "Flying South in Winter" is excellent and atmospheric flute-driven instrumental and one of the best tracks on the album. Side 2 opens with the simple but utterly beautiful melodic "dreams". It features a tasty arrangement, and the Mana is simply just wonderful. "You Make My Jelly Roll" is a piano-driven, bluesy jazz - tune (or jazzy blues?). The two-part closing number "natural high" is cleverly composed track with several good melodies, riffs and solos.
