Actually Batti Mamzelle was a Trinidadian group who recorded on the very small UK label Cube HiFly (which also recorded some John Williams works). This was an odd band, having a steel drum section as part of the standing line-up. This LP took me over a year to find in the pre-internet days. Glad to know see more people can enjoy it.

"Batti Mamzelle - I See The Light -1974 UK":

Batti Mamzelle members was from Trinidad but all moved to the UK. They only released this rare album and the band split a year later.
The album prodused by Richard Bailey, the keyboards player of Osibisa. His kid brother,Richard is Batti's drummer. Heavy funk/psychedelic soul collectors will love this album.
