Summer 1988 and as Acid House raged across the UK pockets of resistance began springing up delicated to a very different beat. Inspired by Hip-Hop, Jazz and a wealth of Soul and Funk recordings stretching back to the 60's America, young musicians breathed life into old sounds, recorded new ones and set about spreading their message worldwide. Soul Jazz Sessions celebrates those bands, producers, and DJ's who took the next step into the studio and produced some dancefloor magic in the process.
Emerging through the mists of time, I’m cutting a rather fetching silhouette - if I do say so myself. I’m stepping out in a pair of Adidas Superstars, known around our way as Shell Toes. The laces are fat and flat, peeping out below the legs of, who’d have thought it, a pair of Farahs - the slacks rescued from the golf course - while on top, implying something between London Cabbie and New Jersey Mafiosi, is a Gabicci casual knit.
It’s probably a Saturday afternoon and it will be D’Arblay Street, W1 where I’d have chipped up to The Duffer Of St. George to liberate a little number from their racks of impeccable clobber and Fish The Hairdresser would have tweaked the barnet into their now ubiquitous Soho Crop.
And that night? Well it might have been more West End pressure at The Cat In The Hat, or a Shake & Finger Pop session over in North London or Jon Moore might even have a Cold Cut warehouse party down by the river. Even better, this could be the Saturday at the Town & Country Club when Marco and Femi brought together James Brown’s Funky Family and rare groove came to the masses, live on stage…
An era, a vibe, a style, and it’s as simple as 2 plus 2 equaling 4, as profound E equaling MC Squared.
Rare Groove + Acid Jazz = Soul Jazz.
The Soul Jazz Sound emerged in the US in the sixties, going on to grace the early seventies. A generation later, young DJ’s who would simply not fake the funk rediscovered it as their Rare Grooves. Once heard again, it demanded to be emulated by musicians who laid it down for the record as the Acid Jazz thing. Thus, the lineage was continued, the circle completed….
Which is why these Sessions are just indispensable - a classic combination of new breed British, young Americans with the plot and the originators themselves at the height of their powers. Its the soundtrack to a swathe of urban culture and its just gotta get played…

Tracklist :::
CD 01
01 Brand New Heavies - Dream Come True
Arguably the definitive acid jazz combo, the Heavies came out of Ealing, West London and took their full-on funk flavours all around the world. This is the tune that really got them started.
02 Alison Limerick & JTQ - Stepping Into My Life
The Hammond organ is the definitive soul jazz instrument and James Taylor with his band brought it blazing back to the fore. Here house heroine Alison helps gets the spirit fired up.
03 Brooklyn Funk Essentials - The Creator Has A Master Plan
Leon Thomas and Pharaoh Sanders conjured up this modal jazz masterpiece, but here it gets a reworking from a stellar line up of New York session players assembled by king pin producer Arthur Baker. It features the vocals of Joi Cardwell.
04 D Note - Garden Of Earthly Delights
This band have brought the ethereal spirit to a range of dance music and here the mood is sweetened by vocalist Pamela Anderson, sister of Carleen and daughter of stalwart James Brown vocalists Bobby Byrd and Vicki Anderson.
05 Jhelisa - Friendly Pressure
Oozes pedigree. One of a clutch of tunes included here from fabulously consistent English indy Dorado. Jhelisa is another of the Anderson family. This time, its the Kentuckian cousin, would you believe.
06 Gil Scott-Heron - The Bottle
The Guv’nor. Poet. Author. Singer. Artist. Visionary. Scott-Heron lives on the very cusp of where jazz, soul and funk touch. This diatribe against the demon drink is what hammered him home to our consciousness. Features his great partner/sideman, flautist Brian Jackson.
07 Gang Starr - Jazz Thing
With his Jazzamatazz project, Guru was one of the first Americans to ‘get it’ and this killer cut from the Spike Lee Joint ‘Mo’ Better Blues’ showed early on what was to come.
08 Galliano - Frederick Lies Still
The first music committed to Acid Jazz vinyl, it features the precocious poet/rapper over the production of DJ originator Chris Bangs on an old Curtis Mayfield riff from ‘Superfly’. Talk about setting your stall out.
09 JTQ - Love Will Keep Us Together
As many of the originators managed in the seventies, so James and the gang proved you can do the disco thing with style.
10 The Beaujolais Band - Milestones
Stalwart British vibes man Roger Beaujolais heard what was happening in the scene, and knew it was good. To take on Miles Davis’ cool bop anthem and fire it up latin-style would take skill and style. Hell, he had some left over for breakfast.
11 D-Influence Presents D-Vas featuring Dyanne Fearon – I Wanna Know You
What's in a name? The influence of Kwame, Ed and Steve can be found running through the fabric of the London funk and soul scene. They’ve worked with everyone, everyone’s worked with them. And once again, it works.
12 Snowboy Feat. Noel McKoy - Lucky Fellow
Ace Latin percussionist and rip-roaring soul man (often together in the JTQ band) combine to breathe new life into a Leroy Hutson classic.
13 Vibraphonic - Trust Me
Roger Beaujolais again, this time in his funkier ensemble and featuring Mrs.B on vocals - none other than Ms. Alison Limerick. Its a family affair.
14 Past Present Organisation - No.9
DJ’s interpreting and translating their record collections in the studio is an essential part of the experience and messrs. Whinfield. Cox and Osborne do it with not only aplomb but also the fine Jackie Joyce on lead vocals. The title track to a film that should be made.
15 Mother Earth - Bad Ass Weed
They’ve got hair, and they know how to let it down. This band live where its at when they are working the funky psychedelia, and this organ-led jam is exhibit A.
CD 02
01 New Jersey Kings - Spinning Wheel
Another James Taylor incarnation, this interpretation of a standard reminds us of how integral James Brown is to the great scheme of all things funk. The Godfather loved his Hammond, too and this was a favourite for him to get into a cold sweat about.
02 Martine Girault - Revival
New York vocalist Girault hit pay dirt when she teamed up in his native East End with London DJ turned producer Ray Hayden. A died in the wool classic and Hayden hardly missed before or since.
03 Gil Scott-Heron - Lady Day & John Coltrane
The maestro decided to pay tribute to his heroes, and we all get to benefit. Short but sweeeeet.
04 Night Trains - Lovesick
Bassist and studio nutty professor, Hugh Brooker came at the music from all directions. Here with his most populist combo, we get a touch of the Latin boogaloos to push us along.
05 Brand New Heavies - Never Stop
Although the core of The Heavies has never really changed, there were always variations on a theme. Here, its drummer Jan Kincaid took vocals on a song which eventually re-emerged as a big crossover hit.
06 Mother Earth - Jesse
This time it’s leader Matt Deighton to the fore, showing what a delicate singer he can be when the mood is right. It is.
07 Funk Inc. - Chicken Lickin’
Funk Inc epitomise the soul jazz era. Bobby Watley’s Hammond led quintet from Indianapolis cut some serious sides in their time and this little beauty - from their tenure at legendary jazz label Prestige - is what they were all about.
08 Pucho & The Latin Soul Brothers - Got Myself A Good Man
A legend and pioneer of the fusion style, timbale king Henry ‘Pucho’ Brown led his band out of NYC and in to a life long boogaloo party. This joyous piece of music from the beginning of the seventies has become his signature tune.
09 Highsteppers - Got To Be
A project from studio engineer Lee Hamblin who set his own pace with an independently released EP before coming up with this little beauty. Went on to co-write Jhelisa's 'Friendly Pressure'.
10 Cooly’s Hot Box - Let Me Get Some
Manhattan - under the influence of the Giant Steps NYC club/label/promoter experience - turns out some fine contemporary music. This is a project from drummer Christian Ulrich that works a treat live, too.
11 Jimmy McGriff - The Bird
More fantastic, authentic organ-grinding from an originator. McGriff actually translated his style quite cutely into disco in the mid-seventies ( ‘Tail Gunner’ was a bit of a hit ) but you can’t beat dirty and low-down, and this is certainly that.
12 This I Dig - Turn It All Around
A project out of Bristol featuring the fabulous voice of Tammy Payne (who's single for Talking Loud 'Take Me Now' remains a cult classic) and two erstwhile members of Portishead. A seductive piece of acoustic soul jazz styling.
13 Outside - Big City
Matt Cooper - stupidly young, ridiculously talented - established his reputation as a pianist par excellence, and then when he stepped into the studio as leader/producer, there was more magic. Cleveland Watkiss applies his own vocal genius to this epic, textured piece of culture.
14 Subteraneans - Taurus Woman
Brother Marco will always be a Young Disciple in our hearts but his contribution to this area of music is far-reaching. Here he teams up with Max Beasley, who may have become infamous as a pop percussionist and actor but is also one hell of serious, committed jazz vibes-man.
15 The Apostles - Mercy Mercy Me
Another spin-off from the JTQ set up, this time fronted by saxophonist John Willmott who leads his ensemble through a reading of the Marvin Gaye anthem.
16 Johnny Smith - Dig On It
From the seventies, Johnny worked under his nickname Johnny Hammond and produced some of the finest jazz-funk on record under the auspices of cult producers the Mizell Brothers. Right at the start of the decade, though, he was still plain old Smith, but his exemplary soul jazz-grooving was anything but. A rousing finale.
