Went to see The Herbaliser last nite in London with full band & vocalist.
Chris Bowden, sax player, who releases his own album 'slightly askew'
was the phattest we've heard him play in a long time.
The live version of "Something Wicked" was brilliant & the band have
been doing an amazing version of "Light My Fire". They started @ 10
& finished around midnite - two hours of solid funky beats funky
jazz. Did we go home with a smile on our face? betcha.
They're heading over to the States soon and doing some Canadian Jazz
Festivals. You can hear samples of the album

the video for "something wicked" is animated & you can probably catch it at
