Best known for the song \"\u003cem\u003eOh Yeh Soweto\u003c\/em\u003e,\" which is an astonishing adaptation of Lamont Dozier's anthem Going Back to My Roots, this track has become a contemporary underground club classic in recent times and has been featured in sets from a cross-section of DJs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith such a massive calling card song, it could be easy to write off the album as a typical one-tracker (like so many records often are), but that is a long way from the truth. Each of the remaining four tracks are super strong. \"\u003cem\u003eSaturday Express\u003c\/em\u003e\" is a jazz-funk\/disco stomper which will soon be lighting up dancefloors again. \"\u003cem\u003eWind and Fire\u003c\/em\u003e\" is true afro-jazz-funk excellence, with great spacey synths and reggae-inspired guitar grooves riding throughout. The opener \"\u003cem\u003eFriday Night\u003c\/em\u003e\" also has a slightly reggae-tinged tropical groove, whilst \"\u003cem\u003eGot Me Tight\u003c\/em\u003e\" finishes off the session with a feel-good jazz-funk workout that features cool, quirky, Patrick Adams-esque synths.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mr Bongo","offers":[{"title":"LP - Black","offer_id":50473369502027,"sku":"1113998","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50473370255691,"sku":"1113997","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/d6dc682b-44fb-45c9-89a4-cf92ebfc53b0_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727428494","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/products\/teaspoon-and-the-waves","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
