Possibly the best funk tune I've heard May 17, 2009 The 8:00 minute cut "Just Kissed My Baby" alone merits purchase of this recording. The sidegentlemen are amazing and bring out a strong vocal performance from Jon. WARNING! The bass and drum performances made me attempt to dance while behind the wheel; this could create a driving hazard. Jon's keyboards are excellent as always. This is one of Cleary's best albums.

Get to know Jon with this one Nov 09, 2008 My son gave me this album after catching Jon live in New Orleans. He knew I'd like it. He knows me well. It is some of the most infectious funky tunes you'll hear. Sophisticated grooves going on through out as well. John is an English but he sounds like he grew up on the bayou. Get this one and it will grab you from the first track to the last.

One of the best kept secrets in music today... Nov 22, 2006 I first heard Jon & the AMG one Saturday night at the Clearwater Jazz Holiday in Clearwater, FL. They came on just after a particularly uninteresting straight-ahead jazz trio had pretty much put the crowd to sleep. Jon & the boys opened with "So Damn Good" and within 60 seconds they had me and the 9,000 other people in attendance partying our brains out. I've been a HUGE Jon Cleary fan since that moment. Buy this CD. It's great. If you don't like it you're an idiot.

More Hipper Jan 29, 2005 I bought this CD a few months back, and it is, without a doubt, one of the funkiest things I have ever heard. I listen to it at least once a day, and the cover of the Meters tune "Just Kissed My Baby" is worth the price of the CD alone. Cleary is a master, and the Monster Gentlemen live up to their name, and then some. I love the CD so much, it brought me out of retirement as a keyboard player. Every single person who has heard me playing this CD has asked me about it. I work in a bar, and put it in the CD player one night, and every head in the place was bobbing, and I even got requests for repeat plays. You cannot go wrong with this CD!!!!

Graitt, Funky, Piano master! Feb 23, 2004 This is a great funky groove start to finish by a guy and his band that is only getting better. Its great to see him with Bonnie Raitt on tour and as her keyboard player. He just brings out the best in so much of Bonnie's newer stuff. He is by far the most funky keyboard player I've heard in a long, long time. I love this new collection!! See this guy LIVE whenever you can!
