Gap Band – The gap band 5 – Jammin’
Gap Band – The gap band 5 – Jammin’. The Gap Band had given themselves some big shoes to fill in the wake of their 1982 The Gap Band IV LP. It had, of course, spawned “You Dropped a Bomb on Me” — one of the defining songs of the decade and indeed of the contemporary funk genre. But with aplomb and finesse, the band returned the next year with The Gap Band V: Jammin’ and only just missed its predecessor’s number one chart position.
From the opening instrumental “Where Are We Going,” The Gap Band V: Jammin’ is a slick, smooth set dominated by some archetypal Gap Band classics. “Shake a Leg” is very typically Gap Band, with a superbly circular rhythm punctuated by bright horns. And, of course, Charlie Wilson’s vocals always keep it all together. “I’m Ready if You’re Ready,” meanwhile, utilizes handclapping to keep the flow and is a sweet R&B-flavored song. “Party Train,” a number three R&B hit, sails the rails hard, complete with sound effects as Wilson calls “all aboard.” Full and textured, this song is a dark little groover, leaden without any weight at all and completed with a Motown-esque subversion deep within the mix. It’s the ultimate kicker for the dancefloor.
Guest vocalist Stevie Wonder is a sublime treat on the LP’s closer, “Someday,” a tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King that showcases the band in a role not often associated with them — socially aware. Up-tempo without the over-the-top grooviness which punctuates much of the Gap Band’s output, it is pure inspiration and a moving moment to be sure.
