| As their live shows continue to charm audiences in USA, Japan and Europe, The New Mastersounds have built on their own impressive musical heritage and produced a soulful, funk-drenched eighth studio album – played as always on real instruments and recorded this time in downtown San Francisco.
The record opens with a classic slice of organ funk, quickly followed up with other seriously catchy syncopated gems full of solos, inventive arrangements and gang vocals. There’s a nod in the direction of jazz-house (à la Saint Germaine), a rolling-piano-&-spoken-word homage to New Orleans (where the band has performed for the past 6 consecutive years), then a massive horn track before the tone of the album gradually shifts to close out with a psychedelic Hammond-rock sound reminiscent of Brian Auger. Eddie Roberts’ vintage production delivers warm soulful bass, choppy drums, funky organ & piano, and Eddie’s signature roughneck jazz guitar throughout.
Out on the Faultline is another corker of an album from the stalwarts of the global funk and soul-jazz movement.
