Our Take
Shakatak - 45th Anniversary Collection When you think of jazz-funk bands that have stood the test of time, there's one name that immediately comes to mind - Shakatak. Celebrating their impressive 45-year career, the British outfit has put together a collection of hits that is guaranteed to get you grooving. Opening with the infectious "Easier Said Than Done," it's clear from the get-go that Shakatak haven't lost their touch. The smooth saxophone lines, funky bass grooves, and catchy melodies are all present and accounted for, reminding us why we fell in love with this band in the first place. Tracks like "Night Birds" and "Down on the Street" showcase the band's ability to blend jazz and pop sensibilities seamlessly, creating a sound that is both sophisticated and accessible. With their trademark smooth vocals and intricate instrumental arrangements, it's no wonder Shakatak has maintained a devoted fanbase for over four decades. But it's not all smooth sailing on this anniversary collection. The band takes some risks with tracks like "Dark is the Night" and "Invitations," delving into darker, more experimental territory. While these tracks may not be as immediately catchy as their hits, they showcase Shakatak's willingness to push boundaries and evolve as musicians. Overall, the 45th Anniversary Collection is a testament to Shakatak's longevity and enduring appeal. Whether you're a die-hard fan or a newcomer to the jazz-funk scene, this album is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates good music. So grab a cocktail, put on your dancing shoes, and let Shakatak take you on a journey through 45 years of funky goodness. Cheers to another 45 more!
