LISTEN TO IT #100: ALL THE BUDOS ARE HERE

I’ve been slacking on this series, I know. But seeing as how this band is going to feature in my Top 10 Albums of 2014, I thought I’d just slip this in before the year officially ends.

It’s the Budos Band, a Brooklyn outfit that trades in instrumental Afro-Soul, but with added twang. Some people have compared them to early Chicago, which I can see if Chicago had been more heavily influenced by jazz-funk, Link Wray, Tolkien and grindhouse films.

In any case, their fourth album, Burnt Offering, is available. It’s pretty groovy, and it’s really grown on me in the last few months.



No singing,

This is dF
