Reviews
4 Stars - Excellent - "...the playing--like that of the crack soul bands of the Fifties and Sixties--is clear, unhurried and certain...displays a songsmith's penchant for hooks and structure.", "...Displays all of the swagger and funk of a sweltering New Orleans summer night romp....the premier instrumental band of swamp-rock and soul....Chunky African rhythms, slow-cooked shuffles, and some backbeat boss basslines...", "...Excellent....The music is exceptional, a potent mixture of clipped jerk rhythms and simple laid-back funk with syncopated accents....a virtual blueprint for '70s street funk...", 4 stars out of 5 - "...hard-to-find, MGs-inspired instrumental albums....magical skeletons of jigsaw funk...a must-have...", 3 stars out of 5 - "...This largely instrumental album...demonstrates an admirable work rate they have proven more useful as hip hop sample fodder than an intro to the band...", "An inimitable document of New Orleans music, home to the deepest grooves and an enormous foundation for funk, rock, and rap."
