Chris Daniels and the Kings have toured the world several times (They're huge in the Netherlands), the USA repeatedly, and Colorado so much that I'm sure the stage at The Little Bear has their footprints worn in it. I've seen this group uncountable times (spanning over 20 yrs) in wildly different settings and they never fail to deliver. For those not familiar with the band, they keep horn music alive and kicking! Every song has The Kings brass driving the song along and carrying the listener with them. Not many of the songs they do are deep, reflective tunes, exploring the inner psyche, although they have had their reflective moments. Most of their music is Good Times music that has you tapping your toes and boogying across the floor.

This particular recording is a selection of songs that they have been playing/covering at concerts for years. On their previous recordings they have pretty much stuck with either new or lesser known tunes. By naming the disc "Stealing the Covers" they let you know exactly what they are going to do, cover the song, make it theirs, and run away with it! Roll Over Beethoven opens the disc and they steal through tunes like Choo-Choo-Ch' Boogie and Crossfire before mellowing out to The Heart of Saturday Night and In My Life. Along the way they abscond with Who's Making Love, Soul Mine, In the Night, and Sing, Sing, Sing. To top it all off we finally get a Chris Daniels & The Kings Christmas song! Cool Yule is it's title and is a fun addition. A great disc by a great band. Keep up the good work guys and we'll see you at the next show!
