Big Boss Man have been perfectly fusing 60s R’n’B, Soul, Latin, Funk and Bongo-Hammond-Fuzz since ’98. Releasing five studio albums, and eight 7″ singles, they’ve appeared on countless compilations too. The quartet’s explosive live shows are legendary, and they’ve been blasting stages since their earlier days in The Loafers, Skooby and Espadrille, now with added Roger Green (bass) and Nick Pitcher (drums) too. As well as playing hundreds of concerts and festivals across the UK, Europe and beyond, Big Boss Man’s music may sound familiar to you, being regularly played on film and television, including Come Dine With Me, Strictly Come Dancing and I Used To Be Famous, and broadcast on BBC Radio, by presenters including Gideon Coe, Cerys Matthews and Craig Charles. Not just that, but previous tracks have been used by Nike and The Mighty Boosh, and their official remix of Modfather Paul Weller’s single ‘The Bottle’ went straight in to the UK Top 20, and fast became a collector’s item. In 2025, the band was invited to play at the 34th Euro Lambretta Jamboree, and thus decided to commission a new 7″ for the occasion, titled ‘Lambretta Boogaloo’. To be released consecutively with their new album, ‘Join The Jet Set’, this 7″ EP contains two vocal tracks, ‘Don’t Take My Baby Away’ (already aired by Craig Charles on his What’s To Come In 2026 show) and ‘If I Had A Chance To Do It All Again’, both needing to be on a 7″ disc for DJs and collectors alike. With guest vocalist Charlotte Benson, the EP also contains a groovy instrumental version of ‘Don’t Take My Baby Away. Big Boss Man continue to make what the people call ‘proper’ music, fusing a mix of Soul-fuelled 60s R’n’B, Hammond Jazz, Latin and Mod Funk! Limited to 300 copies on vinyl.
