The Blow Monkeys - The Wild River (2017)

The 10th album from the British band led by 'Dr. Robert' Howard. The Wild River was recorded in Spain and produced by Dr. Robert. The 10 new tracks deliver a funky soulful extravaganza with added sugar from the sweet soul strings of Ben Trigg and the inimitable iconic saxophone of Neville Henry. Also joining the band for the first time on record is ex-Galliano sticksman Crispin 'The Pump' Taylor. Add Dr. Robert's spiky guitar and distinctive vocals and Mick Anker's snaking bass lines and there you have it. A simian soul stew with biting but poetic lyrics designed to make your feet move and your mind wonder.
