Description:
Me First and the Gimme Gimmes started as a joke band. Me First and the Gimme Gimmes have become very successful. On their fourth album Take A Break, the band spin back around to their R&B roots. R&B roots? You know the foursome to be members of punk rock bands (NOFX, Lagwagon, Swingin’ Utters, ex No Use For A Name/Foo Fighters), but once upon a time, before the lads ever laid a stylus on a Sex Pistols LP, they spent their afternoons on street corners perfecting their break dancing moves to the sounds generated by their portable boom boxes. As a tip of the hat, Me First and the Gimme Gimmes recorded Take A Break not only to pay homage to the R&B greats, past and present, but also to give something back to the inspiration that made them what they are today. As they've done in the past, Me First and the Gimme Gimmes breathe new life into songs that were once "hits" but have fallen into obscurity. Songs like Seal’s “Crazy”, R. Kelly’s “I Believe I Can Fly”, and the Jackson Five’s “I’ll Be There”, that may have only seen the charts for a blink of the eye, are now made new again with the magic that only Me First and the Gimme Gimmes possess! Take A Break is a title that says it all! 14 songs that are now new again, ready to regain “hit” status under the thumb of the great Me First and the Gimme Gimmes!
