I was working at the radio station a couple weeks ago when I picked up an album by Black Joe Lewis & The Honeybears, a band I’d never heard before. I popped them in the disc tray and was blown away. They fulfill all my soul-loving tendencies, as they are very reminiscent of the more raucous Stax bands and Sly Stone. I got the album, entitled Tell ‘Em What Your Name Is!, and am extremely impressed. Here’s a video to the song that introduced me to them. I hope you like it as much as I do.
