Black Feeling
Freestyle Records
SOUL/FUNK
Conceived by label owner Adrian Gibson and made into reality by The Bamboos’ Lance Ferguson, the ‘Black Feeling’ project is all about taking it back to the source - to the music that has inspired, instigated and accompanied many a musical journey over the years. Consisting of members of The Bamboos, Cookin On 3 Burners and many more. Kicking things off is the James Brown penned “Honky Tonk Popcorn”.
Possibly the stand out track of the album is “Hippy Skippy Moon Strut” - a dancefloor favourite at the more discerning clubs around the world, the track is perhaps better known as the sample source for Christina Aguilera’s “Ain’t No Other Man” smash of last year. Rusty Bryant’s Dingwalls classic “Fire Eater” given an afro-cuban shake up, Richards People’s funk break classic “Yo Yo” gets worked over in a fine style and another appearance from the Godfather of Soul with the cover of “Licking Stick, Licking Stick”.
