Holy Guacamole!!! Every now and again something pops up on my YT feed that blows the cap right off my noggin. This is one such…
The Tears For Fears original of Everybody Wants To Rule The World is superb. It’s an epic song. Scary Pockets take it and turn it into a terrific funky soul jam.
Jack Conte and Ryan Lerman are – I think? – at the core of the Scary Pockets revolving door cast. Here they’re joined by (?) Salomon on bass, Louis Cato on traps, and Cory Henry on keys. And boy oh boy oh boy do they cook up a righteous bouillabaisse of groove and soul!
The energy, the joy, is palpable, oozing from the music, and dripping out of the screen like a tsunami of warm golden honey.
