music doesn't get much more fun than this stuff. a wide variety of styles are explored on this disc, from new orleans party music, to more traditional jazz, to south american sounding excursions, to a plethora of funk beats. buy it and have a party inside your brain. this is incredible music. lively, fresh, with energy flying off everywhere. soul-lifting genius.
As 2 say, this album is a blend of jazz, funk, R&B, blues of course, and some hip-hop to deepen the rhythm a lil' bit more.Like to say they definitely blow their chops off, knahmean (know I'm mean). This is a excellent must-have and check out Impromp2, Urban Knights, Pharez Whitted, Grover Washington, Jr., Mike Phillips, Jeff Bradshaw, Alicia Keys, Joye B Moore, Rod McGaha, Lisa McClendon, Miles Davis, plus many more.
Listening to this made me realize that this band had a huge influence on Galactic. These guys can kick. Includes two covers, Run Joe by Louis Jordan and Inner City Blues by Marvin Gaye.
I've seen them live in Burlington at Higher Ground and they were fabulous. This album will get your head noddin and is good for a road trip. Also, the live album they did with Widespread Panic is no slouch. I know this band has done other albums before this. No doubt John Medeski on the organ and in the production booth helped these fellas out. I would recommend this to anybody who likes to groove.
THIS IS JUST A FUN ALBUM AND A DIFFERENT LISTENING EXPERIENCE THAN ANYTHING ELSE YOU WILL EVER, EVER, EVER HEAR ON RADIO. GET THIS AND EXPAND YOUR LISTENING RESPONSIBILITIES.PLUS IT'S JUST GOOD. TUBAS AND ORGANS AND DRUMS.OH MY. IT'S NOT P-FUNK FUNKY, BUT DEFINITELY THE TYPE OF FUNK YOU WOULD EXPECT FROM LIKE A MATURED, DEEP SOUTHERN, HALFTIME MARCHING BAND.WHICH IS ALWAYS THE BEST PART OF A FOOTBALL GAME, ANYWAY.
