Whole Affair by Izit,
By A Customer
This review is from: Whole Affair (Audio CD)
Very cool: sort of Swing out Sister (remember them?) meets the Brand New Heavies. Awesome vocals by the lead singer.

This is modern alright. Izit work their fantastic playing into fat bass acid jazz grooves.
I took this out after listening to and reviewing fellow acid jazzers Incognito's Positivity: sometimes it is revealing to examine music in clusters. Forced to give a nod, I'd go with Izit. What sticks out about Whole Affair is, actually, what doesn't. Both bands use modern digital production. But where Incognito choose to highlight the shine, almost making it another instrument, Izit use a more subtle approach The thick bass and gleaming musical skylines on Whole Affair inform you this is a modern album, but don't stick it in your face. Izit have a sharp sense of melody, and every sound--even the female singer's refined voice-is evenly mixed. You know this is no 1967 Larry Young gig, but as soon as you note the modernity, you can forget it, and get reams of enjoyment out of these diamond cut chord progressions, and Izit's melodic pop instincts: the 1960s pop soul influence is deep under the text of Whole Affair, but like everything else this band does, is wound tightly in the perfect candy wrapper. Get this.

Timeless Acid Jazz!,

This review is from: Whole Affair (Audio CD)
This CD is the definition of acid jazz. The production is very good ,but not overdone. It is jazzy, funky and cool. The vocals are great and the players are serious groovers. I bought this back in the 90's and still listen to it often. As far as I know they only made two full length CD's. Both are great.
