Next, Soulive's Blue Note album from March 12, 2002, picked up where the previous year's Doin' Something left off and pushed further. The Woodstock, New York trio of Eric Krasno on guitar, Alan Evans on drums and Neal Evans on Hammond B3, bass keys and clavinet had added saxophonist Sam Kininger, and for the first time they hit the road as a four-piece. Jeff Krasno produced.
The beats hit hard, the melodies come stacked in harmony, and tunes like "Tuesday Night's Squad" and "Alkime" tip their hat to the vintage organ, guitar and sax combos. But this is no museum piece: Black Thought raps on "Clap!", Talib Kweli turns up on the Hi Tek remix of "Bridge to 'Bama", and Dave Matthews guests on "Joyful Girl", pulling the band's jazz-funk into hip-hop's orbit.
