Pigbag's "The Sessions 1981-1983" is a funky little time capsule filled with more horns than a brass band on speed. The album kicks off with the infectious groove of "Papa's Got a Brand New Pigbag," a track so upbeat it'll have you shaking your hips like a middle-aged dad at a wedding. Throughout the record, Pigbag flex their musical muscles, blending elements of post-punk, jazz, and afrobeat into a deliciously weird sonic stew. Tracks like "Getting Up" and "Sunny Day" showcase the band's knack for creating infectious melodies that will stick in your brain like a catchy jingle. But it's not all sunshine and rainbows in Pigbag's world. The darker, more experimental tracks like "Yawn Yawn Yawn" and "Open One" add a nice touch of grit to the album's otherwise sunny disposition. Overall, "The Sessions 1981-1983" is a joyous, eclectic romp through Pigbag's heyday. It's the kind of record that makes you want to throw on your dancing shoes, grab a cocktail, and hit the nearest discotheque. So, if you're in the mood for some off-kilter grooves and infectious horn lines, look no further than Pigbag's latest offering. It's a wild ride you won't want to miss.
