Throwback

Throwback
by Kermit Ruffins with the Rebirth Brass Band



By K. Beauchamp "Music Fashionista" (South, USA)

This review is from: Throwback (Audio CD)
If you want to get a taste of street band, foot tapping, jigging music, Throwback is for you. Kermit teams up with the ever so awesome Rebirth Brass Brand to produce a sound that is reminicent of good times in the Big Easy.

"It's Later Than You Think", Ray Charles' "I Got A Woman", and "What is New Orleans" are my personal favorites. The CD is just host to great musicians who show their enthusiasm and chops through the CD. Recording this thing must have been one big party. The ONLY weird spot? The last song, "Up In Tha Hood"--clearly a lot of fun for the band, but a little scary for the rest of us who are used to straight up brass band and not Kermit as Master P...otherwise, an exceptional CD from, by the way, a great example of a local record label--Basin Street puts out some great local artists. Check out their other artists-- Los Hombres Calientes w/ Bill Summers and Irvin Mayfield, Theresa Anderson, and Dr. Michael White, to name a few.
