Q.A.S.B. / Q.A.S.B. [SG-008] (SoulGardenRecords / BouDEE,Inc DQC-337)
1st album of "Q.A.S.B.".
Recording using open reel tapes is like a flash back to the 1970s sounds in which James Brown and his family flourished.
The album is well balanced with deep funk tunes and mellow soul/vocal numbers.
"The Key" in particular was highly rated and the single vinyl (before released) was put out by Jazz Man Records
