On the heels of highly successful reunion tour last year, The Greyboy Allstars met in the studio for the first time in a decade to make What Happened to Television?, which is also the group’s first collaboration with DJ Greyboy since their seminal 1995 debut, West Coast Boogaloo.

As on that album, which featured former James Brown musical director Fred Wesley, one hears on What Happened to Television? elements of the old-school funk and soul that have always preoccupied the band’s namesake DJ, who returns here as co-producer in addition to performing on a track.

It was as an extension of Greyboy’s weekly residency spinning records at San Diego’s now defunct Green Circle Bar that the Allstars first formed in 1993—a diversity of emerging independent musicians who coalesced around a scene-defining DJ and his unique ear for music. After a few years in which word of the group—and, soon, the Allstars themselves—made their way around the world, it became clear to Greyboy that he was not interested in the touring life. So, retaining his name and spirit, the band continued on without him, recording and performing together for several more years.
