Description
This 20 track compilation just might be the best Soul/Funk collection I have come across….it is the perfect antidote to lockdown blues & will remain a firm favourite in your collection well beyond… I assure you! Craig Charles has been a soul and funk fan since his teenage years in Liverpool, going to see local heroes The Real Thing live, and wearing out his shoe leather dancing in the city’s many underground clubs. Craig has been sharing that passion for the music via his 6Music and BBC Radio 2 shows and DJ nights for nearly 20 years.
His brand new Trunk Of Funk compilation series, blends up-tempo club classics, with fresh music from the cream of the crop from the contemporary soul and funk scene.
This collection of 21st century disco, soul, funk and afro grooves includes tracks from contemporary heroes of the scene such as The James Taylor Quartet, and is peppered with some old school classics and rare grooves from legends such as Roy Ayers, PP Arnold, Miriam Makeba and Patrice Rushen kicking off with an awesome version of ‘Soul A Go Go’ by none other than SOUL MESSIN ALLSTARS feat. JOSH TESKEY on vocals. Craig has personally selected and sequenced this collection to take the listener on a musical journey, the closest thing to having Craig visit and personally DJ for you in the comfort of your own home!
It also includes two Trunk Of Funk Edits that are 100% exclusive to this compilation and not available anywhere else.
*ALSO AVAILABLE ON VINYL
