The Berlin Session EP (skamonkey.com)
This superb 5 track CD is exactly what it says in the title, a session recorded in Berlin. As the story goes on the inside cover, this was recorded while the band toured Europe and found a 2 day break to dash into a studio to rattle this one off.
The band had a slight change of line up and whilst missing Sharon and Martin they took on board the excellent vocal enhancement of Ruby Taylor, better known for fronting the brilliant band ‘Ettin‘. I would not really say this is a CD that would catapult you on to the dance floor for a good old skank at first listen, but it does tend to allow you to change your mind about that half way through.
If you are having a night in relaxing with your feet up and maybe a smoke of the sleepy stuff then this is the one for you.
This CD has grown on me and become a permanent fixture in my car player over the last 2 weeks. Crisp drumming, solid guitars, balanced keys , smoochie sax and nice clear beautiful vocals. Some cracking songs that are very catchy. I love it and a big thumbs up!!
