INCOGNITO 'Always There'

On July 12, 2014, Incognito threw a party that will surely be remembered for years to come. To celebrate the band’s 35th anniversary in style, Incognito performed at London‘s O2 Shepherd‘s Bush Empire and invited friends, family and fans to join them for a wild night out.
“Live In London – 35th Anniversary Show” was released on 2CD, DVD and Blu-ray on August 14th, 2015 on earMUSIC.

With guest performances by genre and music companion Mario Biondi, American soul diva Carleen Anderson and friends and artists from former and current times like Mo Brandis and Imaani, Incognito plucked out songs from their 17 studio albums for an amazing performance, delivered in style, with passion, with soul and with heart.

Formed in 1979 and having been successful for over 35 years now, the global phenomenon behind mastermind Jean-Paul ‘Bluey’ Maunick, presented the band’s greatest hits like their #6 UK single charts success “Always There”, their first single ever “Parisienne Girl” as well as recent songs like “Goodbye To Yesterday”, fan favourites and songs dear to the band on this night to remember. The memorable gig brought the essentials of Incognito, the jazz, blues, funk, soul, latin and dance together for a perfect blend.
Adds Bluey: “For those of you who joined us for this celebration, this will hopefully bring back fond memories and make a great souvenir of the night! And for those who could not attend the show, here’s what you missed… Enjoy!”
The songs are just as surprising on the HD live video as on CD - a great emotional atmosphere where to feel that Incognito loves and lives the music.
Embedded with funky grooves and huge soulful voices this music experience will definitely give you goose bumps in its quieter parts and animate you to lose control in the up tempo ones.

So it’s time now to turn up the volume and dance!

The original British acid jazz, funk band from the early 80's 👌 ahead of their time 🙌. Always a fan of this type of music 🎶 💃🕺✨️. British acid jazz from the 80's and 90's was good, big fan. Glad my youth / clubbing days was in the late 80's and 90's. Best times, friends, real time experiences not online/ virtual, the last era of nightlife, talented artists, great bands, world was in a better space. Then came mobile phones 📵and everything changed to online/ virtual which we are now a part of.Memories, nostalgia. Want to dj the the music from this era and thus relive it. ❤ reading the comments from people all over the world sharing memories, nostalgia from their youth when this music was current. ❤ to you all. Thanks to YouTube our time machine back to 80's and 90's.

I love the keyboard and drum intro to this song! It gets me going every time, always and forever there!

[calumcampbell]

Man this is tight .. what a version .. soul enhancing

[slimdudeDJC]

A good number of the members in Incognito are about 35 years old themselves. So yeah, some additions/changes should be clearly understood. And yes, I too adore this group, especially Imanni Saleem. They do a separate live performance of this tune and the intro is stretched out with Imanni providing the vocal portion of it, and it is hypnotic!!! 🧡🖤💣

[zimzadaah]

There is no better band then INCOGNITO!!! I ADORE this band and it's members!  The horn section??  just SICK!

[travelingman]
