What were they thinking?

"First of all, I have been a HUGE Down to the Bone fan ever since I first heard a track of theirs a few years ago. Seeing them live at the Old Pasadena Jazz Fest was one of the highlights of the summer of '03. With that, I have to say -- what were they thinking? This CD sounds like they got tired of the whole thing, turned on the synthesizers and left the room, no, the building. Monotonous. Stale. Wow. Why? Any of their other CDs blows this one out of the water. Try "Manhattan to Staten" and "Crazy Vibes & Things.""

Computerized Techno-Jazz!

Anthony Accordino | Massapequa Park, New York United States | 07/28/2004

""Cellar Funk", by Down To The Bone, is an awful exercise in bland computerized pre- programmed robot music. If you want real jazz/rock fusion, you are better off listening to the Crusaders, Stuff, Weather Report, or the master Miles Davis. There are no educated musical riffs, or even a hint of great musicianship here. This isn't real jazz, but it could find a place as telephone hold music! Avoid this release like the plague."

R A C

"With apologies to the guy from Tampa, who admits he isn't a DTTB fan, this CD is very good. While it is not as into the horns as past DTTB CDs, the keyboard work from Neil Cowley and Neil Angilley make this CD a departure from past DTTB efforts, and yet you still have the sax and flute playing of Paul "Shilts" Weimer to go with it. It has a funkier edge to it, which means that anyone who is looking for just a jazz fix only here might not relate, but if you like to mix your jazz with some good grooves, then this is for you.The best tracks are "Back In Buisness", "Cellar Funk" "I'll Always Hold You Close", "The Flow" and "Global Village", but the CD as a whole keeping it going from begining to end."
