Although most people haphazardly toss them in the ever-growing acid-jazz bucket, reed player Karl Denson is quick to point out that his quintet plays boogaloo music. Popularized in the late 1960s by Pucho and Boogaloo Joe Jones, boogaloo is a danceable funk-jazz-soul hybrid named after the popular jig of the period. The Greyboys borrow funk's urgent rhythms, jazz's sophisticated improvisation, and the polished, easy-flowing groove of soul. Their funk is not "nasty" as much as it is "tasty." They've also been wise enough to play with and learn from veteran soul-jazz men such as Melvin Sparks and Fred Wesley. (Wesley contributes particularly eloquent liner notes regarding the idea of "white boys playing Black Music.") These 10 creative originals include upbeat vamps, impressionistic free-funk, piano-driven blues workouts, and atmospheric mood pieces. --Marc Greilsamer
