about

Happy Holidays and Seasons Greetings from KB. We landed on ‘Doing It To Death’ pretty naturally. It got thrown up with a heap of other stompers and in retrospect, we chose this because it is emblematic of The JB’s beautifully considered simplicity, and James Brown at almost his most outrageous, evidenced in the key change halfway through.

The band on the original is The JB’s maybe at their peak – big, big, massive call we know. Fred AND Maceo AND St Clair, Jimmy Nolan, Cheese Martin, Fred Thomas and Jabo Starks, goodness gracious. How we convinced ourselves we thought we could do it justice we’re not sure.

It just had the right amount of material for us to flip, freak and put our own fruity flavour on. The title and the lyric, “gonna have a funky good time” would slot right into our ‘KB Manifesto’ were we to ever pen it. Hope all the Boogers out there enjoy it, and if not please be unbridled in your vitriol and hate mail. Lots of love, The KB’s.
