Our Take

In the annals of 80s British pop, few bands stand out quite like JOBOXERS. With their infectious blend of New Wave, funk, and soul, they quickly became darlings of the UK music scene. Now, their iconic hits have been compiled into the must-have collection, "Essential Boxerbeatin".

From the moment the signature brass section kicks in on opening track "Just Got Lucky", you know you're in for a wild ride. The band's energy is palpable, their infectious grooves impossible to resist. Frontman Dig Wayne's charismatic vocals soar over the funky basslines and jangly guitars, creating a sound that is undeniably unique.

"Like Gangbusters" and "Is This Really The First Time You've Been in Love" showcase JOBOXERS' versatility, with their ability to seamlessly blend genres and keep the listener on their toes. The energy never wanes, each track more infectious than the last.

But perhaps the highlight of the album is the irrepressible anthem "Boxerbeat", a song that encapsulates everything that made JOBOXERS so special. It's impossible not to dance along to this infectious track, with its pulsating beat and catchy chorus.

"Essential Boxerbeatin" is a testament to JOBOXERS' enduring legacy and a must-listen for anyone craving a dose of 80s nostalgia. So strap on your dancing shoes and get ready to groove, because this album is a knockout!

About the artist

JoBoxers

JOBOXERS are a band that burst onto the music scene in the early 1980s, bringing their unique blend of new wave, pop, and soul to the forefront. Hailing from London, this eclectic group quickly gained a reputation for their infectious energy and catchy hooks. Led by frontman and vocalist, Dig Wayne, JOBOXERS are known for their dynamic live performances that never fail to get the crowd on their feet. With a lineup that includes a saxophonist, a keyboard player, and a guitarist, their sound is a delightful mix of genres that defies categorization. Their debut album, "Like Gangbusters," released in 1983, was met with critical acclaim and spawned several hit singles, including the infectious "Just Got Lucky" and the funky "Boxerbeat." The band's success led to appearances on popular music programmes of the time, such as Top of the Pops and The Tube. Despite their initial success, JOBOXERS saw their popularity wane in the mid-1980s, prompting a hiatus that lasted for several years. However, their music continued to resonate with fans, and they reunited in 2011 for a series of live performances that reminded audiences of their undeniable talent and enduring appeal. With their distinctive sound and charismatic stage presence, JOBOXERS have left an indelible mark on the music industry and continue to captivate audiences with their infectious tunes and electrifying performances. So, if you're in the mood for some vibrant, feel-good music that will have you dancing all night, look no further than JOBOXERS. Keep on boxerbeating, folks!
