Review by mohatar Jun 13, 2009
Speak Low are a funk combo based in Madrid. The sound of the mighty Hammond organ, the powerful brass section, the stomping rhythm section and the super funky guitars makes for an unstoppable funk machine. Unstoppable on stage, but also in the studio, as you will hear on this brand spanking new album.

Six years ago the Speak Low boys decided to get together to put together a set based on jazz, funk and soul classics, and what started as a fun way to spend a couple of free hours grew to be one of the best funk bands of the old continent. Their first album was released by the mythical Acid Jazz label, to much critical acclaim, while in Japan the record sold a more than considerable amount after being released by Ultra Vybe. On top of that, a couple of singles were released on luxurious black vinyl by Funkorama and Lovemonk andndash; collector´s items which are included on this new piece of work and have been praised by such soul and funk connoisseurs as Mr. Scruff, who said, when Lovemonk sent him the 7": "Yes, I love it, I just bought it the other day."
