About the artist

Shakatak

Shakatak: Smooth Jazz Pioneers or Funky Fusion Fraudsters? With a career spanning over four decades, British jazz-funk band Shakatak have certainly made a name for themselves in the music industry. Formed in 1980, the group quickly established themselves as one of the leading exponents of the jazz-funk genre, blending elements of smooth jazz, funk, and pop to create their signature sound. Led by co-founders Bill Sharpe and Jill Saward, Shakatak have released over 50 albums and scored numerous chart hits throughout their career. Their infectious grooves and catchy melodies have garnered them a loyal fanbase around the world, with their music often described as the perfect soundtrack for a summer's day or a romantic evening. But are Shakatak truly the smooth jazz pioneers they claim to be, or are they just a bunch of funky fusion fraudsters? Critics have been divided on the issue, with some praising the band's ability to effortlessly blend different genres and create music that is both accessible and sophisticated. Others, however, have accused Shakatak of being overly polished and commercial, lacking the raw energy and authenticity of their jazz-funk predecessors. Love them or loathe them, there's no denying that Shakatak have left an indelible mark on the music world. Whether you're a die-hard jazz-funk fan or just looking for some catchy tunes to dance to, Shakatak are definitely worth a listen. So grab a glass of wine, kick back, and let the smooth sounds of Shakatak wash over you. Who knows, you might just find yourself grooving along to their infectious beats sooner than you think.
