Very nice R&B-influenced jazz, led by Hunter on 8-stringed guitar. As you probably know, he plays the guitar and bass lines simultaneously, and often tweaks the guitar sound to mimic a B-3 organ. His writing is upbeat and funky.

He's got a good band here. John Ellis provides some meaty tenor-sax solos, and Gregoire Maret on "chromatic harmonica" adds a bluesy/bucolic sound.

Fun stuff. Every track is worth a spin.

1- Midtempo with wacky swirling from sax & harmonica
2- Slow street funk
3- Latin feel, but a bit offbeat
4- Midtempo, loping, bluesy
5- Midtempo funk
6- Latin interlude featuring harmonica
7- Gospel tune done as an upbeat blues
8- Fast shuffle
9- Interlude ... w/drum machine?
10- Midtempo
11- Midtempo, with odd rhythm
12- Slyly funky
13- Slowish w/happy staggering theme
