about

Crocodile Pyle is the third release to be taken from Number's forthcoming album.

Named after a former Tour Manager and friend, the piece celebrates a deeply percussive dark funk with showering conga slaps and driving bass groove, and features the masterful blowing of trumpeter Byron Wallen – a former collaborator with Ali and Rich in Red Snapper.

Indeed this is the most Snapper-like of the Number releases and sounds like a meeting of Pigbag with the thundering percussiveness of Sons of Kemet; you somehow feel that it should have been the theme tune to Brian Cox’s Planets series.

If mankind were ever to broadcast out into the space of the solar system from the surface of the moon, Crocodile Pyle would be the first tune out of the box and would be an enticement to any extra-terrestrial to come visit……..
