What music critics say:
“…for an object lesson in funk music made the old-fashioned way, look no further”.
“…an epic night of funk from the pioneering group the Fatback Band.” 
“…a sell-out crowd enjoyed the soul/funk/disco legends, the Fatback Band. They've been stellar since the 1970s…”
“The Fatback performance was absolutely fantastic, and the energy was hypnotic. It’s been a long time since I have danced so much, and felt so alive!”
“…bass lines that never let go, party-time chants came with harsh-reality raps, ad-libbed harmonies soared and sailed, the jazz was spontaneous, hard-nosed and unfettered.”
