The first of the great Argo/Cadet series of comps, and one that really reflects the London obsession with jazz funk and soul jazz grooves in the early 90s. There's 10 hard instrumentals here, most of them by folks that we have a hard time turning up in the original. Monster cuts include "The Wailer" by Sonny Cox, "The Aquarian" by Harold Land, "Milestones" by The Three Souls, and the fantastic "Feel" by Buck Clarke, which is a massive stepping conga/vibes track, and is worth the price of the CD alone! © 1996-2025, Dusty Groove, Inc.

This is another triangle! A pilgrimage that illuminates the connection between the three and their roots from one corner. This disc, A LONG SOUL VACATION, was spawned in homage to 1981's A LONG VACATION and 1983's SOUL VACATION, and the subtitle was chosen as a stepping stone to the other lead album track, "Wings of the Night". Starting with M1, the song that led to the formation of Chanels, Disc-1 analyzes M8, which shows the influence of Eiichi Otaki's classic "Yume de Aitara," also covered by Razz & Star, M9, which is reminiscent of the intro to "T-shirt and Lipstick," and even a song covered under the name Udo Ryugasaki before his debut. The magic of these songs is illuminated by the interplay between Otaki and Tatsuro Yamashita. Disc-2 features a full selection of songs, including M1, which symbolizes a chance encounter between Yamashita and Masayuki Suzuki, who sought each other out at a record fair, M3-10, which were featured in his "ON THE STREET CORNER" series, and M11, which was homaged in "Goodnight Rosie".
