From Amazon.co.uk
The sounds of the 70s have had a mystical and enduring hold over popular music, and with Toploader releasing their debut homage to the funk, rock and psychedelic era, there's little sign of its grasp loosening. Which--given Joseph Washborn's gravely vocal charms (think
Jamiroquai's Jay Kay singing the songs of
Reef), the stripped down
Stevie Wonder style of "High Flying Bird" and the rock tones of the
Black Crowes and
Lenny Kravitz on "Breathe" and "Future"--is no bad thing.
Onka's Big Moka, the oddly titled debut from Eastbourne's finest quartet may not be pushing any musical boundaries, but with the gloriously uplifting "Let The People Know", the sublimely emotional outpouring of the soul that is "Achilles Heel" and the light-footed and incredibly cute party piece "Dancing In The Moonlight", it's a flawless exercise in piano bashing and guitar pop. Which again, is no bad thing.
