I\'ve also seen Robert Walter\'s Super Heavy Organ but wasn\'t as impressed because I see badass soul-jazz projects all the time in SF and the bar has been set very high. There are at least a dozen+ more projects related to this band in addition to what I\'ve listed. (I should start a Greyboy family tree diagram in Powerpoint)

Post by: Gordo on April 21, 2008, 12:20:17 pm: Saw them at HOB a few months ago.. It was absolutely sick. The whole band is great and Karl D is my favorite live performer. I remember one moment specifically where Denson dropped into a sick groove with the deepest, most growling sax solo I\'ve ever heard live and the whole crowd went nuts. I must\'ve yelled "**** yeah" a hundred times that show and my girlfriend laughed by my side all night.

Did he do his 5 minutes of "chitlins standup" gavin? His nerdy racialized banter amongst a band of white geeks makes the funk that much more confusing and wonderful. I can\'t wait until they come back, or even better, The UNIVERSE!!!
