about

The album is a classic indie cooker from Sugar Billy – a bit funky, a bit clubby – and a really great batch of grooves that give us a lead in to the pre disco era! The tracks are all pretty darn upbeat with a nicely rough-edged feel.
A delicious mixture of Billy’s slightly raspy vocals, all in a groove that’s somewhat unique, and which is almost a hybrid of southern soul modes and some of the indie styles bubbling out of the New York scene in the early 70s.
