Timebox
Soul Sauce
Yes, after a period of laziness and well, just not listening to anything remotely suitable for the slot, Song of the Week is back.
Back with a 60s Southport take on a Latin jazz tune by Cal Tjader. If you listen to the music and ignore the photo above, you won’t be surprised to know that Timebox had a residency at the Whisky A Go-Go in 1965 and were an trendy mod group for five seconds. They supported The Small Faces and even almost had a hit with their version of Beggin’.
All up, they didn’t have much success and other than a handful of Northern sound-a-like stompers and pretty psych rip-offs they er … weren’t all that great actually. But this is pretty catchy. Really.
‘Soul Sauce’, Timebox, 1967 from Beggin’ 1967-1969: the Sound of London’s Mod/Club Scene
