Have you got the bottle for this Jéroboam of Paris funk - these guys are massive as a Jéroboam!


There seems to be old skool funk revival going on what with Brooklyn Funk Essentials' new album 'Black Butterfly' (see review HERE), Butter Funk Family (see HERE) and now Favorite Recordings Paris contribution with a big bottle of Jeroboam.

When I say "old skool", we're talking big band Sly & The Family Stone, Isley Brothers, Tower Of Power level of super funk and gospel.

If you're not sold on this after 'Sweet Addiction', 'Feeling Something' and 'Say Yeah' you're soul aint quite right.

And you know when Rick James went romantic?  You know he couldn't do it for long and it's given Jéroboam some 'Sleepless Nights' - is this a ballad?  And then you can't miss out on Prince, so this album is becoming 'Unstoppable'.

This doesn't happen over-night but just imagine this landing on your doorstep!  'Surrender' to it and 'Light Up' with 'The Games':  Jéroboam's eight track debut album is bubbling with love.

Amazing that 2026 finds us with a "eleven-piece live machine" of a manifesto of FUNK with a capital 'F' - don't miss out and discover what these guys are made of.
