LEMD-0042
Recorded in 1999
Released in 2000Produced by Noah Baerman, this CD sets his original tunes alongside classics like "(You Make Me Feel Like) a Natural Woman" and "Disco Inferno." But while Noah oversaw the record, his alter ego "Mr. B" took over as soon as the tape rolled, leading the band through tune after tune of full tilt soul. The CD demonstrates their versatility, moving from aching ballads like "Since the Blues Walked In" to a Stax-flavored reworking of "(What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love and Understanding," as well as forays into the worlds of funk, blues, disco, gospel, and even salsa. And the lyrics waste no time in spelling out their agenda. The openener, "Boogie Treat" warns, "the way that we rock the beat will knock you right off your feet." On the next track, "Peace Brigade," vocalist Lea Osborne wails "there ain't no barricade good love can't break through!" With that, the Boogie Band forges ahead, breaking through barricades with their songs, grooves, and message of peace, love and funky music.
