junkie, and after four decades collecting and presenting soul & jazz dance I still crave for new "vintage gems" from the little label collection. Those thousand upon thousand of independent record labels whose original output didn't sell in any vast quantity, but are now being appreciated by a whole new audience of collectors, DJ's and music lovers. Such is the irony of producing timeless black music. Here we have another cache of collectable songs, the majority of which are extremely rare and are given to you with extreme dedication and affection from Russ and Jake at Counterpoint, for you to savour now and for many years to come. -- Bob Jones
