The Bamboos are SO SMOKIN'! I first heard them on KFJC radio here in San Francisco Bay area when the DJ was playing In the Bamboo Groove from their first album Step it up. I called and said, "what is that PURE FIRE that you are playing?!" Now I own almost all their albums and spin their vinyl 7-inches whenever I DJ. I only wish they would visit California so I could see them live! If you dig the Bamboos, you will love the Los Angeles based band Breakestra (Live Mix Vol II and Dusk till Dawn)
Hot Pants Break Down (Soul Tornadoes) / Captain Buckles (David "fathead" Newman / Upstairs On Boston Road (Sammy Gordon & the Hiphuggers) / Ghetto Funk / Sister Janie
The Bamboos - Listen! Hear!! The Bamboos Live!!! Tru Thoughts, 2008-06-16
Oh man...why did this clip have to end so soon?! If anyone digs this sound, they are alot like "The Glory Revival", a band I used to go see alot in Phoenix AZ back in the late 90s / early 2000s. No longer together, but when they were, they set the house on FIRE! Their album "Stand Up" is fantastic. Check check it out!
The are both great band. I have been in the front row to see them both live, and i dound the bamboos to be just as if not more impressive. They are an amazingly talented group
I just love these guys - the are amazing musicians. I can't wait to see them at Garden Music - good food, good wine, great music, what could be better?
my dream is this band playing live music in canada for bboy jam
