Yes, we've all heard Dexys homage to the man - but how much do you know the music of the man himself ? Do you want to jump, hop, jive and bop till you sweat like you just don't care ?
This is the album to buy if you want to imagine yourself in Soho in 1968 -you've made it past the bouncers with your two-tone suit and your slim black knitted tie, but will the soul brother GIs down for the weekend from the US bases in Norfolk really accept you as you start to bop and clap to the infectious beat ? Basically, who cares - that's the message here - grab a babycham or a Watneys Red Barrel and enjoy this hot sweaty cellar of a CD. You're going to boogie till dawn, to the soulsound of bass, horn, sax and that funky, sexy, wunnerful guy called Geno Washington !! NO-ONE KEEPS THEIR FEET STILL TO THIS ONE !
