bubinga5 Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 (edited) A long time favourite, seen them live so many times i can't remember. the best was in the Jazz Cafe with Carleen Anderson and Ndea Davenport.. love Andrew's under rated bass lines. the music has always been consistantly good. i do prefer there early stuff from Trunk Funk, to think they formed in 1985 under the name Brother International. such a fantastic band.

spectoremg Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 I like Sometimes - great bassline and lovely octave underneath them. I believe he played on the early Jamiroquai albums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gomez68 Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Amazing band saw them at the Kaya festival a few months ago. I loved this band from the start and of course the acid jazz period! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think one of them played on When You Gonna Learn, but the rest of EOPE was Stuart Zender. I may be wrong. Trivia time - Jay Kay auditioned for the Heavies back in the 1990s, didn't get the gig, decides to form his own band and went on to outsell them by something like 20-1!

tobiewharton Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Great band. Saw them seven or eight years ago in Manchester and it was slick. Midnight at the Oasis must be considered an acid jazz classic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul_5 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 My fave is 'Saturday Night' - used to play that one in a funk band back in the early noughties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soulboy Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Drummer and founding member Jan Kincaid has quit which is a great shame. Andrew Levy played on Jamiroquai's first single "When you gonna learn". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
