Britain's Finest.

Introducing...



Along comes the musical funk and electronic beep-bop of this mid- eighties UK seven piece, 'The Cool Notes'.  Symptomatic of early eighties dance-pop, it found a basic soul sound that encouraged the vocal and instrumental talents of the group to thrive between the years of 1984-86. They only ever released the one album in 1985, 'Have a Good Forever' and it contained enough singles to stretch releases for another year upon its release before the band folded.


Lets start:


This is something that permeates the dancefloor jive. Heat, musk and sweat while probing that move that oozes dance and funk - its all about the sharp shifting notation and gesticulations. It's not hot and heavy like a steam machine, but light enough to smile and dig the beat amongst electronic key strokes. Funk and boogie woogies to the max.


Their major commercial success, hitting no.11 on the charts in '85. It's a carry over of the funk instilled on 'My Love is Hot', while accessing the groups strength in vocals (by Lorraine McIntosh), it's awash with minor synths that create an overall polished track worthy of a most successful single.


The intro to this number was just an ambush of sexually explicit and implicating images from popular culture. That instrumentation from strings to sex, I mean saxophone, with deep lyrical embellishment where love is melded with all the classical elements that Barry White made a living off. Hot and heavy conditions expected.

This group is so cool, that when they go to bed at night, sheep count them.

A slight pinch in the disco regions is what has me swaying to the groove...
