Twas a dark day for The Senator. Forcefully removed from his home planet, this sole surviving funkocrat ventured off in search of tasty jams and even tastier liquor. By some streak of luck his starship landed on earth and he has gathered the mightiest of musicians from the farthest reaches of Brooklyn and Queens. He's "brought us sticks for drums, and diet coke for all our rums," and now we bring you the biggest bottom, the most fearsome riffs and a naturally sonic parade of tonal insanity that you cannot hope to contain. But why contain, give a listen . . . and do try the sweet jasmine rice.
It has been said that a donkey is not a horse, but I often wonder if the Silent Boss (whilst Funking that Shit) has ever had the urge to challenge Billy Mitchell. I can only turn to The Naturals for answers ...
