A flagship of British fusion, a masterpiece of sophisticated urban sound
This is a career-defining album by British fusion group Shakatak, characterized by their catchy and sophisticated sound that blends elements of jazz, funk, and pop.
The tight, funky rhythm section and flowing keyboard solo create an urban, sophisticated groove. The cool, mellow vocals enhance the pop appeal of the song, and their golden age style, combining jazz improvisation with catchy melody lines, was established. This is an important work that led the fusion scene at the time and is a symbol of the era.
