 Don't get TOO excited. August 17, 2004

I had to take a star away because this disc doesn't even come close to The GBA's West Coast Boogaloo which, in my humble opinion, is the finest work of each of the musicians on that album. A lot of you may not agree, but A Town Called Earth and KDTU's stuff do not have the same strength in melody. Maybe some will agree with that. Thing is, after reading the reviews I immediately called around until I found this thing and went and bought it, hoping it would have some of the melodic magic that I know these guys are capable of. Honestly, I was a little disappointed.

.....and after only 7 years. I searched high and low for this one and finally found it. Let me start by saying that the Greyboy Allstars are/were the greatest jazz band of my generation (the 30 somethings). They take everything I love about clasic old-school soul jazz and multiply it times 10. I know this has Robert Walter's name on it, but all the G.B.A's are on this funky funky album-not to mention the legendary Gary Bartz. This is great from beginning to end- I listen to it over & over. If you are into funky-boogalo, soul-jazz from the 60's & 70's or you're a fan of the Allstar's and you run across this grab it while you can- ya dig?

This is definitely a must-have addition to your collection if you dig upbeat, danceable funky jazz grooves. Stop reading about it and buy it already... you will not regret it!

This album makes me feel like I am a small smoky jazz club, enjoying music and scoping mysterious women. Analogy aside, this album has a lounge feel that will appeal to those interested in the funk and so called acid jazz realms. Tracks like "Bidi Man," "Volcanic Acne" and "Kick to the Head" are the kind of foot tapping good vibe tunes that just might get you off your bar stool and dancing with that brunette in the corner.
