New Upcoming Release for Boozoo Bajou

Posted almost 6 years ago
Boozoo Bajou are set to release Juke Joint II come August 8, 2006 in the U.S. Below is a description of this upcoming release.
BOOZOO BAJOU make a welcome return after last years critically acclaimed “Dust My Broom” album with the follow up to their equally applauded Juke Joint compilation from a few years back. It was well worth the wait as the downbeat dubsters again managed to line up an amazing array of quality tracks showing their intrinsic affinity with all things “roots”, no matter if it`s Reggae, Soul, Blues, Folk, Jazz or original R&B. Underplaying the mixing in their trademark laidback style they still gel together the varying rhythms, musical styles and tempos in what must be THE perfect summer soundtrack. Highlights come courtesy of Alice Russel, The Meters, Mark Rae, Nicole Willis, Hanne Hukkelberg and John Holt but the absolute must haves surely are the exclusive Boozoo Bajou cuts “Back Up” (featuring Stones Throw artist Oh No on vocal duties) and “Der Pflug”, and their remixes of Tony Joe White`s “Rainy Night In Georgia” (impossible to find!) and Gecko Turner`s “Dizzie” (as of yet unreleased!).

If you haven’t been turned on to the musical stylings of these guys, then there is no better time to than now. cd

    squirpy says Well….I am now embarrassed to admit that until this post I was completely ignorant of the existence of Boozoo Bajou. After hearing the first few tracks of Dust My Broom I knew that I had to have it all. I also found Satta, Juke Joint and even managed to get my hands on Juke Joint 2 (what can I say I have skills). Although there is certainly more to Boozoo, I really dig the downtempo reggae, dub-style tracks. Do you have any more recommendations for artists that explore this style. Until now, besides a few random songs here and there, I’ve pretty much had to exclusively rock the Space Monkeys vs. Gorillaz “Laika Come Home” to get my electronic reggae fix.
