The Saturday Night Soul Spectacular is something like a really great vintage-record DJ night, full of the retro sounds of 1960s and ’70s funk rock. Only the music here is live and original, not recorded. The Black Dynamite Sound Orchestra and the Struts join in the celebration of the second album by Lord Loves a Working Man, a huge local slab of rhythm and blues. It’s the first record to feature the two current lead singers, Freddi Price and Cynthia Taylor. But like the previous release, it continues the band’s mission to put its crazy-talented horn section, bass section, guitar section, and drum section in the service of pleasing both your heart and your booty.
