Shakatak: Emotionally Blue (2007)

2007 album from the British Jazz/Funk/Fusion band led by keyboardist Bill Sharpe and drummer Roger Odell. Like Level 42, the band came into existence in 1980, a time when Punk and New Wave were the music of choice for England's youth. Somehow, Shakatak managed to win the hearts of Europe and Japan even though their style of music was not in vogue. Since then, the band has explored many styles of Jazz and Fusion and have managed to maintain a large core audience who have grown with them.
