Evil Ways Fattburger

Описание: Fourteen years after the release of their Best Of Fattburger album, jazz outfit Fattburger is released a Greatest Hits album on March 27th. 2007. The album's dozen tracks include such hits as "Groovin'(On a Sunday Afternoon)," "Evil Ways," and set opener "Oye Como Va."The group gets attention not only for its consistently high-energy grooves and smooth melodies, but for its unusual name.

Bassist Mark Hunter says that the group was a nameless house band when the group's keyboardist dreamed up a musical tribute to his favorite Los Angeles institution: the Fatburger hamburger chain, known not only for its burgers, but for its late-night hours.Said Mark: "Our keyboard player, Carl Evans, Jr., had written a song called 'Fattburger,'which is an ode to the Fatburger hamburger chains.

There was one night when he went in there late night after working in Los Angeles, got himself a double chili cheese, and just devoured the thing. And on his way home to San Diego he came up this melody in his head. And that became the ode to Fatburger."Drummer Kevin Koch adds that the tune ultimately became a signature for the band: "It was one of our more popular songs.

We were playing at a club near San Diego State College down there every week--and people they would always request, 'Play the Fattburger song!'And all of a sudden we started becoming known as the band that played the Fattburger song, and then pretty soon it got shortened down to the Fattburger Band, let's go hear Fattburger.

Before we knew it, when we came out with our first CD, it was like, what are we gonna call it? Everyone was like: Ya gotta call it Fattburger!'"Previous albums by Fattburger include 1993's On A Roll, 1995's Livin Large, 1996's All Natural Ingredients, 1998's Sugar, 2000's Fattburger.com, 2001's T.G.I.Fattburger, 2003's Sizzlin and 2004's Work To Do.
