¡I Ain't Drunk, I'm Just Drinkin'
¡DRINKIN' HOPPYS
Description
[Machine Translation] Tokyo-based jump-blues band, Drinkin' Hoppies! This new album was recorded, mixed, produced, and performed by Mitsuyoshi Agatsuma, a great predecessor in the jump & jive world. The third album by the Drinkin' Hoppies, one of Japan's rare 12-piece jump blues band with 8 pipes and 4 rhythms, sings the spirit of the 1930s and 1940s in Japanese to revive the popular black music of the time. The lyrics are humorous at best, and jokey at worst, but the performance is based on swing and boogie-woogie, and you can feel a great respect for the black music of the time (as it should be). The entire album is lined with jump numbers, but it is also an ambitious work that challenges calypso ( M10 ) and Cuban song ( M4 ). Continuing from the previous album, Mitsuyoshi Agatsuma ( Mitsuyoshi Agatsuma & The Swingin' Boppers ) was in charge of recording. For this album, Mr. Agatsuma not only recorded but also produced. In addition, he participated as a guest musician on three songs, singing, playing guitar, and playing tipple. The album was recorded in about three shots, halfway through, on old-fashioned digital tape (mainly for economic reasons). The bonus track features a guest appearance by Swingin' Boppers bassist Yutaka Maki.
