With special guests: Mark Norton tenor sax, baritone sax, flute & harmonica Matt Wilding congas & percussion
Influences
The Meters, Jimmy Smith, Boogaloo Joe Jones, James Brown, Muddy Waters, Rusty Bryant, Charles Earland, Brian Auger, and those other glorious contemporary stalwarts of hip grinding funky jazz & soul ... The New Mastersounds, Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings, The Poets of Rhythm...
Sounds Like
Funky guitar over serious bass & drum grooves with a screamin Hammond Organ over the top .. and oh yes a little bit of tube of confusion in dub breaks....
Formed in 2003 from the wreckage of legendary UK Hammond funk outfits 'The Soul Destroyers' and 'The Longo Allstars', THE FANTASTICS! (previously known as Reverend Cleatus & The Soul Saviours) have since released 7" singles on Freestyle Records and Raw Wax Records, been featured on compilations including DJ Format's 'FabricLive.27', 'Hot, Funky & Sweaty' (Acid Jazz), and 'Modern Funk' (Freestyle Records). The debut album '2Lbs of Funk In a 1Lb Bag' is out now on Soul Cookers Records, meanwhile work has begun on the next album, which is due for release on Freestyle Records in 2008.

SATURDAY 14TH On the a side BOOM BOOM is a whole slab of the rawest juiciest funk imaginable - an instant raw funk classic with HUGE drums, big breaks, chicken bone guitars, crazed moogs…. everything you could want really. Plus, on the flipside, a version of funk classic, “Jan Jan” with the BIGGEST BREAK IN THE WORLD, some mentally unwell moog and some filthy, filthy Hammond. Here’s what folks are saying: “Aye, I can see that working on the floor” - Keb Darge, funklord. “THE GRITS are going to be GODS!” – Craig Charles, BBC Radio 6 funker. “THE GRITS appear to be doing all the right things” - Mark Lamarr, BBC Radio 2.
