Citrus Sun – Anaconga LP – Dome
Review
Citrus Sun – the eight-piece soul-jazz outfit helmed up by guitarist, bandleader and all-round personality Jean-Paul Maunick aka. Bluey – deliver their fourth album for Dome, the delightfully named Anaconga: a thoroughgoing homage to jazz and soul greats from back in the day. Made up of both covers and originals, the album opens with the gorgeous Maynard Ferguson tune ‘Mister Mellow’, with backing vocals from Tony Momrelle and Deborah Bond. Bluey and Richard Bull share production duties throughout; there’s also ‘Down For The Third Time’, a deliciously funky remake of a classic Bobby Caldwell groove from 1978, with Natalie Duncan on vocals and Dominic Glover and Charlie Allen tearing it up on trumpet and guitar respectively; and ‘Mystic Brew’, originally written and recorded by keyboard legend Ronnie Foster, the inclsuion of which is a “thank you for his massive contribution to the music we love and are inspired by”.
