At the beginning of their career, Level 42 was squarely a jazz-funk fusion band, contemporaries of fellow Brit funk groups like Atmosfear, Light of the World, Incognito, and Beggar & Co. By the end of the '80s, however, the band -- whose music was instantly recognizable from Mark King's thumb-slap bass technique and associate member Wally Badarou's synthesizer flourishes -- had crossed over to the point where they were often classified as sophisti-pop and dance-rock, equally likely to be placed in the context of Sade and the Style Council as any group that made polished, upbeat, danceable pop/rock. The band's commercial peak came with 1985's World Machine, but they continued to record and tour sporadically throughout the '90s and 2000s.
One of the Baddest bassist ever, turn my brothers on to Level 42, 30yrs ago. Had us listening to your albums on the turntable. You guys are my top 5 band along with Toto and the elements EWF!!!
мы с кшк в ахуе а литтл. а в оксфрде никто не танцует - там все дочки-сыночки евреев - за деньги учатся, а у самих нет музыкального слуха? тогда за каким хуем они вообще припёрлись на этот концерт(?)
Simply red una gran banda que escucho desde sus primeros álbumes. Siga haciendo reacciones de este grupo. Les sugiero que reaccionen a Level 42 una banda que tiene a uno de los mejores bajistas que dio el pop: Mark King (además es el cantante) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--ldukT2I5_c.html Otra banda que deben reaccionar es Incógnito (gran banda de acid jazz).
в оксофрде контингент по-умнее, по-способнее и продвинутее в плане эстетического восприятия, чем в какой-нить гойландии - пританцовывают, плечиками двигают. вот на концерте в школе Беркли наверняка все рубились бы в колбасу
