About this item
Fans of instrumental funk and soul have got an absolute treat on their ears here as Dapton as The Rugged Nuggets drop a faultless collection of authentic jams as true as the leather on your shoe,
Made up of members of Orgone and Jungle Fire, the group deliver high-grade west-coast cool, with swooning strings, breezy surf guitars and tough as nails breakbeats. The recording and production is slick as you like too, with spacious, high fidelity, super clear recordings giving all instruments bucket loads of room to breath and express.
Recorded in the San Fernando Valley just a stones throw away from the infamous Van Nuys Blvd. cruising scene, it's no wonder this imeccable debut hits hard and demands to be turned up loud with the windows rolled down.
For fans of - Menahan Street Band, El Michels Affair, Khruangbin, BadBadNotGood, Daptone.
Get yer ears around this Craig Charles! ;)
