Spiritual Underground

Except for the fact that my vocal chords were messed up we laid down some pretty good grooves last week. Here’s our song Spiritual Underground for your listening and downloading pleasure. SU was originally a more afro-beat track inspired by the late, great Fela Anikulapo Kuti, who’s always been a hero of mine.

If you’ve never listened to Fela, here’s a good place to start.

If I had 17 musicians that I could jam with (and afford to pay) that is exactly how we would roll.

Anyway, we just re-worked the bass line to be more soul-oriented so that we could groove more smoothly in our trio format live and this is what it sounds like.

Normal caveats apply; Firefox users need to right-click and Save-As to save to their hard drive to listen properly. Listen, share, and promote the track as you will for your own non-commercial use.

The best way to stream Beat Concrete tracks is at our MySpace page (www.myspace.com/beatconcreteband) where we have a selection of tracks including Spiritual Underground.

Peace out.
