Lubriphonic plays upbeat blues, oxymoron, or not. Out of Chicago and boasting a talented and experienced horn section, this band will get your booty on the dance floor. Except for four songs (Walls, Mexico City Blues, Depression Suite, and Waiting For a Change...all slow), this is a danceable and fun album. The song, Another Patch of Ground, in particular, starts out slow, but it works itself into a tight groove and features a nice horn solo. Rebecca Ruth.Jimmy Carpenter
