Following the success of their 2016 live album Soul Jazz Fridays, Chris Hazelton’s Boogaloo 7 is back with their first studio full-length record, The Basement Beat. The Kansas City soul-jazz powerhouse covers a lot of ground on this record, including four Hazelton-penned originals, a blazing cover of “Bambu” by legendary guitarist Melvin Sparks, and a proper tribute to the late soul queen Sharon Jones. This record is an authentic slice of soul-jazz from front to back and will keep listeners moving with each spin.
