"I couldn't fight them off. . ."
I have to be honest in letting you know that I was caught a little off guard the first time hearing Nostalgia 77's cover of the White Stripes' song, "7 Nation Army."
Nostalgia 77’s version of this classic Stripes’ tune takes the perfect amount of time in laying down a thick n heavy groove in preparation of Alice Russell’s sopping-wet, soulful voice which gets the sweat dripping at approx. thirty seconds into this funked-out trip.
As remixes and cover songs must if they wish to get noticed, this diamond in the rough whole-heartedly confirms that it seeks not to mimic to the original, but rather to outwardly display the fact that it is an amazing funk song that just-so-happens to be masterfully produced and diabolically schemed by its creators.
In making this a standout track, It also helps to have prominent UK vocalist, Alice Russell's vocals bubbling all over a warm, vintage sounding percussion section that is lavishly complimented by bluesy-sounding horns and the familiar, hyperballein guitar line of “7 Nation Army.”
