Bluey and Richard Bull share the production .   “Down For The Third Time”, the album’s lead single, is a deliciously funky remake of a classic Bobby Caldwell groove from 1978, with Natalie Duncan on vocals and Dominic Glover and Charlie Allen tearing it up on trumpet and guitar respectively.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e “Mystic Brew” was originally written and recorded in the Seventies by funk, soul and jazz keyboard legend Ronnie Foster and Bluey includes it “to say thank you for his massive contribution to the music we love and are inspired by”.   Erykah Badu’s “Honey”, also with vocals by Natalie Duncan, features beautiful trumpet and flugelhorn from Kevin Robinson.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe stand-out new songs on the album are “Santiago”, which features the young Indonesian harmonica player Rega Dauna, who starred on the band’s “Hard Boiled” instrumental hit from their last album “Expansions \u0026amp; Visions”, and “In Search of the Blue Note”, with Dominic Glover on flugelhorn and Graham Harvey on keyboards, which Bluey says is “inspired by New York City’s jazz history and nightlife”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBluey sums up the mood of the album:  “I hope that the rhythms wrap themselves around your consciousness and the music slithers into your soul, whilst you bask in the light of the Citrus Sun!   Unconstricted love, Bluey”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCitrus Sun is the mainly instrumental-oriented side project which runs alongside Incognito and features many of the same musicians.  In the US the band have charted with “Mais Uma Vez”, “Calling Mr Wolf”, “Hard Boiled” and “Thinking of You” from their prior albums, and they have played live in the UK and Europe, Japan and the US.      \u003cbr\u003eOn June 13 they play an album launch show at London’s Ronnie Scotts club. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1.    Mister Mellow\u003cbr\u003e2.    Honey\u003cbr\u003e3.    Mystic Brew\u003cbr\u003e4.    Down For The Third Time\u003cbr\u003e5.    Twilight Reimagined\u003cbr\u003e6.    The Boy Beneath The Sea\u003cbr\u003e7.    We Fight We Love\u003cbr\u003e8.    In Search Of The Blue Note\u003cbr\u003e9.    Sing To My Beat\u003cbr\u003e10.    Santiago\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"DOME RECORDS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43843262873756,"sku":"DOMECD352","price":15.84,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/image001_3_4a50891a-1301-40db-a07b-7dfcba688dad.jpg?v=1717675720","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/citrus-sun-anaconga-cd","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
