I have been really liking "Lonely Boy" when I hear it on the radio. I'm much more interested in it than the singles from their "Brothers" album. I like that sort of rapid, down turning sound that they do. :)

Just picked up El Camino -- the last edition the record store had mind you. I felt incredibly accomplished. I have yet to listen to it, but I will post a review, I promise. :)

A friend of mine digs these, I haven't got any of their albums but will probably buy one or two at some point, they do sound good:)

I've given this a few spins now, mostly on long runs. It's pretty good - not quite up to par with the classic first three albums, but I'd put it above the other Danger Mouse albums Brothers and Attack and Release and maybe even Magic Potion. Every album though has it's keepers.

This is the tune that brought me to this thread - love it :grinthumb And the vid has me in stitches - that guy doesn't half knock some shapes out :heheh:

I've been listening to a few of the songs posted here and I really like this band's sound. Anybody have any recommendations on which album to pick up first?

I think a lot of people would suggest "Brothers" (which won three Grammies) or their newest "El Camino" but I think "Attack & Release" it better than both. I don't usually like to say this sentence but I prefer their earlier albums because they're thicker and bluesier.
