#1359 Charles Wright and The Watts 103rd Street Rhythm Band - Hot Heat and Sweet Groove

Instrumental funk / soul, with shades of tons of bands I like, but it never quite gets there. A little too precise, a step too slow // not enough soul, not enough funk. Consider: covers of Yellow Submarine and Girl from Ipanema. Cute, unnecessary. Even that album title is a bit of show-don't-tell sinning.

This never quite gets past making you want to relisten to the other bands that do it better 2.5/5
