I love this group! Check out Incognito too
"Acid Jazz" as they used to call it back then... Nice.
Very cool retro funk beat....thanks for sharing.
yeah, loved this album when it came out. i believe i still have the cassette! this is their best work, in my opinion....fresh sounds with a positivity you can't beat! that's why you got it on repeat!
they're the reason I got into Acid Jazz then... 'love their 'You are the Universe' and 'Midnight at the Oasis'...
I totally agree with riao! I love Brand New Heavie's "The World is Spinning" which was in the movie, the truth about cats and dogs...and I LOVE INCOGNITO!!! i make it a point to have all their cds...especially I HEAR YOUR NAME on 100 degrees and rising cd.
Wow
This happens to be one of my FAVEST ALBUMS EVER! I still spin this in my car and on the Ipod after almost 15 years! I picked up the drums because of this album. I saw them live, pressed up against the stage at the House of Blues back in college, and thanked God I was alive. I piped this album into my then unborn boy's ears (via headphones on my wife's belly) because I wanted him to be born funky!
This first album is the best of everything they've put out since.
Feel the funk, y'all! Have a good time!
Manang, thank you for sharing.
I heart this album also. NEVER STOP was my favorite song and that was on repeat constantly.
I don't think I've ever heard more than one song of theirs, BUT I have heard their version of You've Got a Friend. Most revivals stink but theirs I totally loved, so much so that I used to play it in my shows once, twice a week. Wonderful rendition :>
acid jazz...yeah that's what my band parliament syndicate used to play during those good old "grease" days...hehe
bnh and their raw and timeless funk...and yes check out incognito too (listen to Shade of Blue and Talkin' Loud)...my life has never been the same since.
Yeah. Absolutely the same reason I got hooked on Jazz as well. These are two of my all-time favorite Acid Jazz tunes.
hello...like it too? it's a really good album and a really good band
Now BNH- they are my fave fave band of all time. Along with Incognito. I discovered them about 15 years ago and still they make me groove.
I've been a long time BNH fan ! they're timeless ! I like the albums with N'dea than the latter vocalist Siedah Garret.
the other albums like ' Brother Sister' and ' Excursion,Remixes and Rare Grooves' are my favorite.you might like them too :)
