Metronome Magazine-April 2000
The South Shore based put out a big,bold
brassy set of
swing blues numbers on their new self titled 13 song disc. Fronted by
R&B singer Steve Matthews, the 7 piece big band puts their
trademark signature on songs by B.B. King, Lowell Fullson, Jimmy Reed,
and the like. There's even two originals,"Boogie With You Baby" and
"Bob's Jump" that stand side to side with the rest of the well
performed cuts. Standouts include "Knock on Wood" the bustling Bob West
original "Bob's Jump", "Shaky Ground" and "You Know I Love You." A band
that knows how to pack a dance floor and keep it that way!
