What can I say about this band except, "Get up on this." In a nutshell, you've probably heard the musicians on this record since they are on many of the Amy Winehouse singles that hit big. But that really isn't what makes this band great and *this* project has less pop flavor and more gritty soul and funk. Formed by Gabriel Roth AKA Bosco Mann while recording fake soul and funk re-issues quite devilishly and successfully, i might add (much to the chagrin of duped vinyl collectors). When recording under their previous name, The Soul Providers, Roth happened upon Sharon Jones, who came to do back-up's on a track. The rest is history. This is the first of 3 great albums. Enjoy.
