TMcG and his Bs have been tearing it up in the past few years with their melding of funk and jazz. This latest release is another proof that they really are the real deal.
Channelling classic p-funk, 70s soul and some classic jazz riffs, this definitely blows away any February blues (and the rest of the year as well). Note-perfect but chaotic at the same time, McGuire’s voice soars above the extensive instrumentation, including backing vocals. The track breaks down several times, latterly in an a cappella chant…
If this does not at least get your foot tapping you are probably clinically dead! In fact if it does not want to make you get up on your feet you probably have some real problems…
An instant classic of a genre not much done in Scotland, probably since the Average White Band, and that is going back a bit.
Tom and his cohorts could really smash it this year, and they certainly deserve every level of success…
