Formed in late 2002, The Boogaloo Investigators blasted out of the Glasgow funk
scene with aplomb. With influences ranging from American rhythm & blues of the
50's & 60's and British mod soul to hammond led soul, jazz and funk, it wasnÆt
long before the 5 piece were gaining support from DJs such as Keb Darge, Eddie
Piller, Mr Scruff and Quantic. Unfortunately, due to legal wranglings, the band
only survived two 7ö releases ûpressed only in limited amounts (on the prophetic
Defunkt label) and now fetching a handsome sum on certain internet auction
sites.
To leave these modern classics sitting in collections or exclusive to high
bidding snipers would not only deny the band their true potential, but also a
newer generation of fans, hungry for the funk. On this release you will find 2
tracks picked from the two elusive 7ös. First up, the band take on Bobby
Williams ôLetÆs Work a Whileö, itself a rarity on the funk scene, and no wonder
why û heavy drums, walkin bass and hammond fired grooves make this essential. On
the flip, we find another cover, this time of Gus ôThe Grooveö LewisÆ ôLet The
Groove Move Youö û built to shake your butt or anything else to!
