Down To The Bone - From Manhattan To Staten / The Urban Grooves / Spread The Word

The UK's leading jazz groove band DOWN TO THE BONE present a seriously funky 3CD collection of their first three all-instrumental albums, which have been unavailable in physical format for some years. From Manhattan To Staten went to No 2 on Billboard's Jazz Albums chart on its original release in the Nineties, while another key cut, the Grammy-nominated Brooklyn Heights, hit No 2 on Billboard's Jazz airplay chart. Both these tunes also feature as 2019 bonus tracks, recorded live in the studio by the band's current line-up. Second CD The Urban Grooves opens with two more DTTB classics, Long Way From Brooklyn and The Zodiac. Again, the album has a newly recorded bonus track, a cover of Willie Beaver Hale's Concrete Jungle, long a favourite in their live set. Third CD Spread The Word also features a brand new bonus track - available for the first time - an instrumental cover of Beyonce's 2006 hit D�j� vu
