Wow! I can't think of a statement I disagree with more. Everytime I saw Galactic I always thought "Amazing band, but that singer is so cheesy!" They would always play a few killer instrumentals at the beginning of the set and get the crowd rocking, then he'd come on stage and begin the cheesefest, totally change the vibe of the show. Then after a while, he'd exit and the band would play a few more psych/jam instrumentals and bring the crowd back to its previous hights I never like to hear about musician's with health problems, but in Galactic's case I felt it was exactly what the band needed to do what they really wanted as musicians.
Agreed. Have you heard their recent stuff though? Its an interesting change...some of which I really like, but some I don't at all. I did see them live a while back with two members of Jurassic 5 and that was a really good show...though even then I wanted to hear more instrumental stuff! |

i saw them with theryl years ago and i saw them once when it was just the band (minus theryl) and there was no "show" — just a bunch of guys with instruments trying to fill in the empty spaces.. i recall people looking at each other in the audience being like "why isn't this fun anymore??"
then i saw them in fall '07 when they were touring with a bunch of hip-hop guys and it was OK but let's face it.. the real power of galactic is theryl.. they need to clone him and restore their act otherwise they're not worth seeing even for $10.

Obviously would have to be written by a hybrid, but what about the band? Maybe some Brothers Cavil on horns, Sharon Valerii on bass, a Centurion on drums (built in sticks and all), Anders or Tyrol for vocals. I really should be working ...  |

I love the tenor sax sound in this song. Nice groove. An easy 7 from me, might be an 8 after another listen.

I lived in NOLA when they were just a bunch of kids getting started and they were smoking hot. I bought their CD at the time and it sucks. I couldn't believe it was the same band. |

If you like this song, I definitely recommend picking up the cd. Very good in my opinion.
this is my least favorite of all Galactic CDs. Check out Vintage Reserve. |
