THE NEW FUNK BROTHERS…The True Loves: Sunday Afternoon

Vintage soul stirring is mixed up by the team of Dave McGraw/dr, Bryant Moore/b, Jabrille Williams/g, Ivan Galvez/perc, Jason Cressey/tb-tp, Gordon Brown/ts-fl, Greg Kramer/tb and Skerik/bs on this foot stomping collection of originals that remind you of vintage STAX and Motown sessions. The horn section punches like Evander Holyfield on “S.O.S” and the staccato’d “Sunday Afternoon” with Skerik giving into some soulful struts on “That’s Good”. An Isley Brotherish “Yard Byrds” gets into your thing, and the rhythm team snaps like snow peas on the funky shuffle of “Objects In Mirror” and the rocking “Robin’s Revenge”. Get on those wide wale cords and a floppy hat for the boogaloo of “Lavender” , while the blues are brewed on “Sunday Afternoon”. Too band Joe Tex or Robert Parker aren’t around to add some vocals, as this team would burn down the house.
