‘Modernists - A Decade Of Rhythm & Soul Dedication’ compilation on Kent set for 23rd February release.


Amazon Product Description
This is a compilation of fantastic rhythm and soul from all over America the sort of stuff that would have had people dancing at the Scene Club if only it had been known about. The Mod Jazz team of Ady Croasdell and Dean Rudland have dug deep into record collections and tape vaults to come up with 24 examples of high-calibre rhythm and soul, including three previously unreleased masterpieces. Of these, Little Eva's Dynamite is already filling floors whilst Got A Good Thing Going On by Clarence Daniels and Obie Jessie is from the same sessions as their in-demand Hard Working Girl. Other records such as Lil Bob's I Got Loaded or Gene Burks Monkey Man are already sought-after rarities. The compilation really comes into its own with its unearthing of underappreciated singles from some of the most iconic record labels such as King, Musicor, Arock, Modern and Fraternity. This could be the start of a very danceable series...
