KINGS GO FORTH DON’T just TAKE any time at all getting MY SHADOW grooving /// The Burning Ear

take this heart, it’s always breaking, put it back together, it keeps on aching

I don’t care what your musical inclination is you just can’t deny this jam! With 10 members, 3 singers, and endless talent, Kings Go Forth are from Milwaukee and play R&B that sounds beamed straight from the 60′s. I don’t have a leg to stand on when it comes to talking about that era with any authority but I do know is that all 10 tracks on their debut album, The Outsiders Are Back, are fantastic. “Don’t Take My Shadow” stands out in particular as the LP’s steamrolling centerpiece. It kicks down the door and immediately takes you on a whirlwind ride of horns, harmonies, and other fantastic instrumentation. It mellows itself out in the middle for a bit but for me that only adds to the songs soul and heart. These guys are just great and will be a perfect summertime staple that everyone can enjoy. Get on this album.

I'm just as stoked as you! :) So much great music! Make sure you grab Lee Fields' “Ladies” from the Best Of Songs of last year. A fantastic throwback jam. I really should check out that whole album…
