Fila Brazillia - Jump Leads

Jump Leads might just be the pinnacle of Fila Brazillia’s long career, and that’s praise indeed! This album definitely ranks among their best work and that quality is evident from the very first track, “Bumblehaum,” which goes from an organ solo to a groovy piece of work. “Motown Coppers” is blip-funk at its finest, and “Spill the Beans” has so much of the blues in it, you’ll be depressed for days. As with any good work, the track continually change, thus staving off any possibility of stagnation or boredom. “We Build Arks” is so catchy, it’ll get stuck in your head like a nail. The closing track, “The Green Green Grass of Homegrown,” merges country-western music with the Fila sensibilities. Needless to say, it’s great. So is this album.
