Listen to a couple of tracks from this comp on the latest Groovement podcast.

For all the diggers out there that like to get a well put together compilation to fill in the gaps and play out with, a new and exciting gem is on the horizon.

Curated by Euan Fryer, Soul Spectrum Records are prolific in the area of releasing hard to find soulful dancefloor re-issues on 7-inch vinyl, and now they’re releasing their first compilation; Soul Spectrum Records Volume One.

“I have let good as well as rare music be the narrative on this LP. There are some records here that are relatively affordable and I encourage you to go out and find them on original 45s, and play them. Records should be heard, not archived – keep the wonderful culture of playing 45s and 12s alive.”

– DJ Fryer, December 2012

The compilation includes some rarities, including the ultra rare $8000 7” from Fluorescent Smogg, as well as a couple of fresh edits of old tunes, and a newer cut by Kings Go Forth to finish the release.

Soul Spectrum Records Volume One is the debut label compilation from Jazzman Records sub-label, Soul Spectrum Records, coming out 18 February. Available from www.jazzmanrecords.co.uk and all good record shops.
