The Part Time Party Time Band
has a great R & B / Blues sound that
is exactly what the name implies. They have a solid 70s/80s Soul
feel that reminds me of of the Temptations, Four Tops, and even the
Blues Brothers. These songs are the kind that make you want to get
up and dance. They play live with nine guys playing trumpets,
saxaphone, trombone, piano, guitar, bass and drums. Add to that some
real heartfelt soulfull vocals. This is real music played by real
musicians (no syntheszers or sequencers) and it don't get much
better than this
