They have three proper releases that I'm aware of: A Taste of the Soul Bossa
Trio (this title may be wrong, but I'm close), Dancing In The Streets, and
Abstract Truth. To my knowledge, none of them have been released in the
States. As imports, they're on Bomba Records (Berlin).
I have Dancing In The Streets and Abstract Truth. Both are great. In fact,
Dancing In The Streets is one of my all time favs. Think straight ahead jazz
with elements of bossa nova, pop, and soul. Brilliant melodies! Abstract
Truth has five remixed cuts by DJ Takemura, Soulciety, SBT, and others. The
tunes that have been remixed originally came from the Dancing In The Streets
full-length. This one is great as well, aside from the length (It's too damn
short).
If anyone knows where I can get a copy of "A Taste of the Soul Bossa Trio",
please let me know.
BTW, yes, they can carry a whole album with no problem. Great band...
