Joe Mama Drops Bomb

"One of the best regional recordings I've ever heard: Green Pepper Air Freshener, the brand new full-length by Glens Fall area's seminal rockers, The Joe Mama Band, drops next month.

Lead vocalist/guitarist Phil Camp, drummer Jeff Britton, bassist Marty Montana, and keyboardist Mark Orlosky have really outdone themselves. There are nods to blues, funk, rock, ska, and soul throughout this 16-song sophomore salvo. The record contains songs that would fill stadiums ala ELP and Pink Floyd ("Paper Club"), instrumentals to silence savage beasts in the vein of Hot Tuna ("Jackie"), and jammers to rock your face off like the Red Hot Chili Peppers ("Human" and "You Were the Love")...need a little something patriotic? Try JMB's "America" on for size. How about an indie rock cruiser in the class of the Wallflowers? Put the CD in, and find "Lock the Door."

To say JMB is tight is an understatement, and to use the word "chops" would be redundant. The talent and cohesiveness of this quartet shows on Green Pepper Air Freshener, an album that will in my CD player for years to come. It's an incredible sophomore album released by a band in its prime."


We here at the Joe Mama band urge you to grab up a copy. All bases are covered. Rippin' insturmentals a la "Rocket fuel," the ska flavored "Can Man", Acoustic ballad "Lock the door" Blusey moods on "All my love" and "Push under and fall" and the down right trippy "Human" gives the listener a comfy journey through the musical hay ride "Green pepper air freshener" provides. but enough talk, click play and lets get jammin'
