Search - Diplomats of Solid Sound :: Destination Get Down!

Steeped in the sizzling, funky gumbo of Booker T & The MGs, The Meters, James Brown, and the backyard barbecue jams of Jimmy Smith, Lou Donaldson, Jimmy McGriff, Lonnie Smith, and Jack McDuff. The Diplomats' third full-length is jam-packed with a dozen original songs guaranteed to lubricate and agitate every bone in your carcass. A jaw-dropping glimpse of the band's propulsive, kinetic "live" sound. An enviable arsenal of dance floor dynamite that intermingles the boogaloo magic of their time-honored influences with the sounds of such contemporaries as Sugarman 3, The Nick Rossi Set, and The James Taylor Quartet.
