"On their second album, In Search Of The Lost City Of The Monkey God, bassist/guitarist Neil Innes, drummer Joost Hendrickx, and reedman Pete Williams, don’t stray too far from the basics; their songs feature snaking woodwind melodies and weightless vibraphone and organ wedded to cracking funk grooves. “Opening Titles” is underpinned by a high-tension rhythm that brings to mind the soundtrack work of Lalo Schifrin and Quincy Jones. “Crossing The Rope-Bridge” feels loose at first, but the band carefully ratchets up the atmosphere and tension until the drums combust. “Summoning The Monkey God” builds from a sinewy bass line, peppering in exotic percussion until it reaches a smoldering soul-jazz peak. Imagining a world where moody film scores from the ‘70s and vintage Ethio-jazz can commingle, the Sorcerers’ aural magic lies in their ability to bring it all to life in the moment". 2020 album buy this amazing Leeds-based outfit!
