Outstanding production, excellent mix. Great stereo width and tonal balance. Brass sounds amazing. Love the little syncopated alto sax/trumpet intro, and I really love that 8 bar opening horn riff. So powerful. Drums have good snap and punch, bass tone is really nice. Rhythm section is locked and loaded, great straight ahead "four on the floor" beat, tambourine was a nice touch. Vocal performance was solid. The B sections have a nice ska flavor that pairs well with the driving RnB in the A section. Nice variation in the arrangement in general. Everything is performed with such fantastic energy, it really comes through in the recording. Thought the lyrics were great, excellent bit of social commentary. Overall just an amazing job here on this track, by everyone involved in its production. Cheers!
