The cure for the winter doldrums..........2006-01-31

This is wonderful, happy, good time music. If you don't feel instantly cheered up upon hearing songs like "Mama Bird" and "Bang the Skillet" you might want to check for a pulse!
I only hesitate to give it five stars on the stength of "Slow Time" which was just a little bit better,but this album is still a must for any lover of ska music. Get it and shake off those winter doldrums!

ROCKSTEADY, SOUL, TRUE GOOD MUSIC.......2004-06-18

I expect people everywhere will know Go Jimmy Go soon! It's a mixture of reggae, rocksteady, ska, soul, and gospel! The horns rock and the lyrics are tight. The CD is awesome and seeing the band live is unbelieveable. The lead singer Bison has so much charisma you can't help but be drawn to the music and lyrics.

Listening to Soul Arrival is an experience........2003-12-23

What you can expect from this album is great musicianship and excellent songwriting. This disc definitely takes you on an emotional journey. Listening to Soul Arrival is an experience.

So what makes Go Jimmy Go good? Great musicians with a high technicality to their playing, excellent songwriting, the lead singer's voice (which has so much soul that it sticks in your head like good oldies tunes), a terrific horn section and I'll be damned if everyone in this band doesn't do backing vocals. The harmonies and sounds that hit you from the stage overwhelm and take control of you. Please imagine the absolute perfect marriage between two island cultures: Jamaican and Hawaiian music. At the very same instance that these boys play a reggae, ska or rocksteady song there is this unmistakable Hawaiian vibe you just can't shake.

mediocre.......2003-01-22

these guys sound great live but somehow that live feel is missing in the cd. Over mixed on quite a few songs leading to a 2-dimensional sound stage. I have heard a lot better from a lot worse. Get a better producer and I think they will really stand out on their next release.
