TheGreek Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 A guitarist I know sent me a link to The New Mastersounds. I hadn't heard of them till I played the video on YT. Anybody know anything about them?? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3FDt54tUtw&feature=youtu.be http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkFX-AvohNg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gottastopbuyinggear Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Check out their album Be Yourself, some good stuff on there. I'm not sure where I first came across them, but pretty sure from a thread on here. Related are the Sound Stylistics, whose album Play Deep Funk is another one I think is great. I'm a late forties, blues, blues rock, heavy rock type bloke, and the whole funk thing passed me by in my youth. Got into playing bass last year, and now I'm buying stuff by these guys, Sly and The Family Stone,The Meters. Who'd a thought it... I really like the New Mastersounds stuff, though, and would love to find more bands like them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raslee Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Awesome band, I have most of their albums too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roland Rock Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Brilliant band. I used to be in a jazz/funk band up York way and we did a lot of stuff in Leeds, so played with them once or twice, and saw them many times there, and once at The Jazz Cafe. Always a really enjoyable gig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassBunny Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 [quote name='Raslee' timestamp='1427238535' post='2727897'] Awesome band, I have most of their albums too [/quote] Me too. Another of those UK bands that is big in the US and gets little recognition here. A bit like The Fixx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
