you just know that what you get will be prime meat with not a single ounce of fat or bone and it'll be cooked exactly to your taste. 'Moving With The Shakers' is all lean meat, nothing wasted, nothing over-cooked, nothing under-done - a real treat of funked-up soul done to an absolute turn!!
This is pure silky soul to rival anything around at the moment - loads of stunning vocals and harmonies, magnificent horns, big phatt bass, piston-like percussion and exemplary instrumentation and arrangements from start to finish. A blast from the past? Well yes and no really! 'Moving With The Shakers' could be described as 'retro' or clichéd or even 'old hat' but that'd be wrong and if you're looking for an outfit to really bring a soul revival down on the world you need look no further than Joey Negro And The Sunburst Band - this lot are cookin' on gas and that's a fact!
This really is an album of prime produce; funked-up, souled-out, almost a case of musical escapism (if this is your bag!). Nothing has been left to chance here; with seventeen exceptionally well crafted tracks you're taken on a voyage of discovery where traditional soul vibes are given a modernistic treatment and end up all slicked-up! Not retro at all, just stunning funky soul and slick jazzy vibes rammed with commercial sensibility just beggin' to get to a dancefloor near you any time now!!
'Moving With The Shakers' by Joey Negro And The Sunburst Band is a piece of 22 carat gold soul with a vibrant party groove - a real treat for any lover of big soul music - slick, polished, groove-laden and as catchy as f**k!! 'Moving With The Shakers' by Joey Negro And The Sunburst Band is music for the soul connoisseur but it's equally accessible to any new soul virgins!
