Soul Shack: Time & Place / Various Soul Shack: Time & Place / Various LP Vinyl

Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing. Contains 12 tracks of up-front, eclectic, super rare, funky-edged and feel-good dancefloor soul. The Soul Shack manifesto is stark - let your body take the place of your mind, and this new compilation on the Club Soul label is a tough-as-nails route to keeping the groove. The popular Soul Shack sessions in the Midlands being run by Neil Rushton are a homage to mind-blowing and spine-tingling black music gems. They encompass the preciseness of cerebral jazz fusion, the simple rawness of New Orleans funk, Nuyorican Latin Strut frenzy, the rhythm-driven angry polemics of Gil Scott-Heron, the sheen of Philly Soul, Big Apple Soul Disco and the Soul and Funk of Detroit's many music alchemists. These are all integral parts of a time and place called Soul Shack - and this record is the soundtrack.
