"Delgres? Awesome band name! What instrument do you play, Mr. Rafgee?"
"The bass."
"Upright? Electric?"
"Tuba."
"Hahahaha...hah..." <sees look of disgust from bandmembers> "uh... yeah. Cool, man."
<listens to album>
"On a Tuba? A Tuba! Wow."

I  Agree!   Actually it is a sousaphone, not a tuba.  ...still GREAT!

Almost awesome.  Needs a chorus or a better middle 8 or something.

Ditto on both counts.  Reed instruments are not for me.

I'm starting with a 7, but it probably will go higher because every time I hear it, I like it increasingly.

My rating on this track has slowly crept to a 9, where it'll probably stay.  I love hearing a tuba play the bassline of a song (and yes, a Sousaphone is part of the tuba family) and really dig this track!  LONG LOVE RP!!

I checked out Hazmat Modine. Seriously great band from my town. Thanks for the recommendation.

I'll return the favor: check out Tuba Skinny, a fantastic band from NOLA that uses a lot of tuba too.

Fantastic.

BTW, on the picture several comments below, that is sousaphone (a kind of tuba). If you like that vibe, check out Hazmat Modine.

No idea about the lyrics, but this sounds to me very much like French creole.  These guys are from Guadeloupe islands.  Quite good!

Well, he's not singing in English.  It's probably a Creole language, so it's "foreign" to you and me.

Bill often plays tracks of African guitarists from Niger. This almost sounds like one of them giving a crack at swamp boogie Agadez style.
