Biri Biri - Biri Biri


Biri Biri have made a hell of a good album (which btw, sounds even better live, where they play covers, too). A hell of a good album, I say. This is good fusion as we know it: damn funk, intelligent and very fun, the musicians know the deed, lots of instruments (sax, trumpet, bongo, cowbell, cymball, drums, bass, etc), it's upbeat (mostly in the second part of the album), it's the bomb, i tell ya. Music to move the body and get the chicks to the next drink. These guys must hit on chicks all summer long down at their base, Crete island. "Killing Me Woman" is my favourite track.

The album is out on
Spinalonga recs (big ups for the guys), so, go fetch. Money well spent.
