Customer Reviews of Urban Grooves-Album II
Down To The Bone Marrow As my review title indicates, the music of this CD goes deeper than your bones, but penetrates even your bone marrow. After hearing the absoultely hypnotizing track "The Zodiac" one morning on WJZF-FM in Atlanta, I knew I had to have the CD, which sounds like nothing else out there right now. The tracks contained on it can best be described in one word: R-E-A-L. It's just pure, unadulterated jazz at its best--without all the technological "bells and whistles" that so many other artists give you these days. You can tell these guys love playing together, and I really appreciate the dedication in the CD liner notes to "the listeners". I can't wait to see these guys live! Buy the CD, people. It'll make for a better summer, I promise!
Delicious Funk!
Yes, I'll add my voice to the chorus -- the disk rocks from start to finish. If not for a visit to the States one day and fortunately hearing them on the radio (a college station specialising in jazz) and then luckily catching the artist's name -- I'd never have known about these guys. This is one of today's music's best kept secrets, but hopefully not much longer. For those who've yet to hear them, it's very difficult to compare this sound to anything else I've heard. A jazzy feel with a strong danceable bottom -- Brass Construction or Wood, Brass and Steel (from the 70's) come close, but not quite.
If asked to pick favourite tracks, I'll go with "Long Way from Brooklyn", "The Zodiac", "Joy Is a Good Groove", and "Bump 'n' Hustle". Some of them are so good you just want to put the player on repeat -- but don't, because the next track is just as good. Pretty rare these days to get a disk where you like every cut, but this is it. I also now own the follow-up disk Spread the Word, but it's not quite so consistently strong. I await their newest release (coming in May) with enthusiasm!!
There aren't too many disks that I and my 19-year-old daughter both like, but this is one of them. When others her age ask what she likes, and she mentions Down to the Bone, she draws stares and "WHO?" She simply says, "check 'em out..." You should too.
One of the best albums ever made
Even if you don't even like anything that has to do with Jazz this album will definetly appeal to you. I didn't listen to jazz at all, but mostly electronic and club music like Antiloop or Fatboy Slim. Guess what? Once I put this disc in my cd player it was stuck there for a whole week! I just couldn't stop listening. The songs are so different and they all have strong and good melodies. One of the best albums ever made in my opinion.
