Ben Tankard
All Keyed Up
Ben Tankard - All Keyed Up (LP)
4 tracks taken from his 1989 album - instrumentals blurring the lines between jazz, gospel, soul, funk and dance
All Keyed Up demonstrates Tankard’s prowess on the keys. Beginning with spare, pensive piano notes the track opens out into a stellar exercise in funk-laced jazz fusion replete with meaty synth bass guitar lines and some stunning, Don Blackman-esque piano runs. On Melodic Heaven lo-fi synths and boogie-fied bass synths combine with Tankard’s elegant and soulful piano. Book ending the collection, a remix of the title track expands the short-but-sweet piano-based vignette into a Balearic anthem replete with extra drums, synths and guitar.
