UUUAHAHAHAH, the apes are on the loose!!!! Out of the Congo to Europe/Spain displaced, Nat King Kong, Chango Reinhardt, Ape Turner, Paul McCaco, Chimp Krpa and Thelonius Monkey could get free from the grip of the hunters of the zoos in Barcelona and Madrid. So what prompt ape-men to make music???? The prospect of a living a fulfilled life with lot of bananas? Absolutely possible, but it is for sure, that THE KONGSMEN are just primates and therefore driven by their nature. As soon as they see a guitar, a bass, a drum or an organ, they must cut loose. The fact, that apes truly have a feeling for music, we human beings have already realized by listening to the song 'Evolution Revolution' by LANCELORD LINK & THE EVOLUTION REVOLUTIONS. A while ago rumor has it some of the band apes of THE KONGSMEN were camouflaged with human clothes and played along in bands like THE FABULES OTTOMANS, THE IMPERIAL SURFERS, HOLLYWOOD SINNERS, etc. from time to time. These creatures, which are similar to gorillas may have taken their banana milk possibly together with the constant stream of R&B, Northern Soul, 60's Pop and R'N'R. Because this is the only comprehensible reason in order to explain, why the sound of THE KONGSMEN follows just these music styles. But as to expect from such a bunch of wild gone apes, it is more rough, savage and crazy than the one from their human idols. Rude R&B meets Fratrock'N'Roll and 60's Punk, which is affected by the garage sound of the modern age. So we can just say: 'Do The Ape', 'Dance The Monkey', 'Go Gorilla', 'Bob The Monkey' & 'Wooly Monkey Wobble" the first longplayer of THE KONGSMEN is in store and up for sale!With the LP/CD you can easily recognize that THE KONGSMEN have a lasting relation to their conspecific, because songs like e. g. the dancefloor hit 'Karate Monkey' by Chubby Checker, the R&B all-time classic 'Chimpanzee' by COUNT YATERS, the funky Soul monster 'Can Your Monkey Do The Dog', which was arranged by numerous 60's Soul Bands like e. g. RUFUS THOMAS, the R&B scene hymn 'Monkey Men' by BABY HUE & THE BABYSITTERS or the Walt Disney classic to the correspondent film 'The Monkey's Uncle', played by THE BEACH BOYS & the exceptionally gifted ANNETTE FUNICELLO, speak for themselves.
