I had my big 40th birthday party last night. I'd hired Paulo Mendonca, who's an absolute rock funk god.
His drummer, Frank 'Frallan' Nilsson is a beast too. Stylistically a mix between Gadd, Novak and Dion Derek

WOW... Paulo Mendonca is my kinda music!
Excellent source of GROOVE! Frank as well...
he holds that trad stick wayyy back! SO inside
that groove...ownership of each note. The
fills at 1:35 reminded me of Steve's fluid blazing
down the toms...love that fill!

Yeah I agree, fantastic playing there, absolutely flawless. Great tune too.

This album was a staple at the music school I attended 20 years ago.
Paulo is a hidden gem in many regards but among my friends, he's a diamond

One of my early and lasting music heroes, Peter Bastian, died yesterday. He was a national treasure here
in Denmark and his musicality and virtuosity knew no boundaries. Here he is, playing a plastic straw:

Obvious James Brown influence (JB and his boys laid a template that is LEGEND)
...that horn riff; Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba

This cat is one of the best fusions of funk and rock and pop! Pure party
music at a club...everyone will dig this stuff immediately! Such a clean
Live recording!!

I call this Hermann Matthews groove drumming...tight pocket, great sound,
hat works that pulses the feel...Pablo's boy is spot ON!

Jeppe bro...thanks for this watch!
