The New Mastersounds: Ten Years On
One Note
From the opening speed jam “San Frantico” to the closing toe-tapper “Make Me Proud,” British funk exports The New Mastersounds shine on Ten Years On. Grace Potter sits in on a nice reworking of her bluesy “Nothing But the Water” (shades of “Cold Blood”) and Skerik adds horns on “Ooom.” While guitarist Eddie Roberts deftly shifts between chicken-scratch funk and Wes Montgomery flourishes (“The Road to Fuji”), Joe Tatton alternates from sparkly Rhodes to soul-drenched organ (“Make Me Proud”), never missing a beat. The group even pulls off the dance-themed “Cielo and Ooom.” The New Mastersounds are a revelation.
