Chickenshack -- Impulse Love

 

Impulse love? Love on impulse? Sounds a tad dangerous with the potential consequences being 1) parents of one of the partners discovering they are proud card-carrying members of the NRA, 2) the sudden need to file some paperwork at the nearest government facility, and 3) discovering how expensive baby cribs can be.

Well, "Impulse Love" here is a lot safer but it also has quite a bit of funk. This is the penultimate track on fusion band Chickenshack's "Chickenshack IV" from 1988 with jazz and blues guitarist Junshi Yamagishi(山岸潤史)helping out. The late saxophonist Hidefumi Toki(土岐英史)and keyboardist Toru Tsuzuki(続木徹)were behind this strut-happy tune down the street. As the chorus sings out, it's time for a nice little walk with that significant other.
