Swedish Trombonist Nils Landgren and his tight Band have created a sound that is as close to the 70’s JB’s as you could imagine. The funky riffs, chanted vocals on ‘Get Serious Get A Job’ and ‘You Got it’ and great instrumentation throughout, and of course by having a Trombonist as the leader, the comparisons are there, yet they manage to keep their own identity. They are aided by Joe Sample on Rhodes on ‘Green Beans’, Wilton Felder on sax on ‘Mr Masumoto’ and Till Bronner on Trumpet on ‘Rhythm is Business’. Good time Funk with a capital F with a jazz tinge this album will lift your spirits.
