Deep Street Soul At Juno Download

Review: Down home funk that recalls old-school greats like Marva Whitney as well as new jack funkateers like Sharon Jones and The Dap Tones from Deep Street Soul, who work up a stomp on the excellent "Hold On Me" and back it up with the more jazzy popcorn swing of "This Love Ain't Big Enough". Two excellent cuts from the group's latest LP, "Look Out, Watch Out".

Review: Building on their self-titled debut LP for Freestyle Records, this Australian funk juggernaut returns stronger than ever - with DSS' new vocalist May Johnston lending a wicked soulful snarl to the raw delights of new single "Look Out Watch Out". With live funk drums taking centre stage in the mix over Hammond organ and chicken-scratch guitars, it's a raucous delight. In contrast, their cover of Clarence Reid's "Masterpiece" (this time sung by Greenbacks' Shirley Davis) is a slower, cowbell-driven soul stomper.
