Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Guitarist Randy Jacobs was known to take off on an onstage backflip or two during his tenure with Was (Not Was). Along with that group's signature voice, Sweet Pea Atkinson, he now powers the Boneshakers, whose blend of funk, blues, and rock comes together convincingly on Shake the Planet, their second album. While never going quite as far out as when they laid down the Was brothers' concepts, the two put forth a skewed-enough worldview on songs such as "Pouring Gasoline on a Burning Man" and "Hype." --Rickey Wright

5.0 out of 5 stars DAYUM!, April 23, 2008
By J. Garniss (Boston MA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Are you looking for an album to introduce you to what funk/soul/R&B should sound like? then you need to get this album! Simple arrangements, yet funkier than anything around these days. This shows you what can be done when you have talented musicians who actually understand what funk and blues really are!

5.0 out of 5 stars Still Kickin'.. Boneshakin' .. Rippin', July 17, 1999
By A Customer
Shake The Planet, has the feel but not the intensity of Book O' Spells, loved the cover of Don't Change Horses. While still a great work, I think Book O' Spells, has a bit more funkyness to it, giving it that swing that gets your groove on, like Part Time Man, the floor board in my car is dented from jammin with that song!! Looking forward to the next one.

4.0 out of 5 stars very solid rock/rb album, May 10, 1999
By A Customer
this is what's left of was not was one of the best bands in the late 80's early 90's. their combination of old school funk rb and lunacy made for some truly inspired music. the boneshakers continue the funk and rb but lose the lunacy. see this band live! randy jacobs is one of the best guitarists in the country, blues rock you name it he is the man. sweet pea atkinson on the other hand is a combination of otis redding james brown and teddy pendergrass all wrapped in one fine package. if you miss b3 organs and great horn charts this bones for you
