The British company Incognito has been around since the seventies, but with its mix of soul, jazz and funk it only manages to connect with the zeitgeist at the beginning of the nineties. The then emerging acid jazz or jazz dance (from Jamiroquai, US 3, among others) is a piece of cake for the now refined band leader JP Maunick. The collaboration with soul singers Jocelyn Brown and Maysa Leak has
… resulted in the hits Don't You Worry About A Thing (a cover of Stevie Wonder) and Always There. With the disappearance of the jazz dance, the popularity of Incognito also decreases, but its long history has yielded the necessary loyal fans, who continue to follow the albums and the performances of the band. On the smoothly functioning Who Needs Love it seems as if time has stood still for ten years. The stylish class of soul, jazz and funk are combined with the danceability of house as always. A well-known but still delicious recipe. (MS)more
