 A superb 12” slab of rare South London British Jazz-Funk, originally released in the UK in 1984 by Jamaican-born producer Tony Williams, the man behind the seminal Funk Masters’ jazz-funk masterpiece, ‘Love Money’.
 Nat King Cool’s stunning in-demand one-off single release ‘Checking Out’ sounds like a blend of MFSB’s ‘Mysteries of the World’ meets UK Brit-Funk, complete with very cool flip-side instrumental. Originally released on the tiny Tai Wan label, this track sounds fresh.
 An absolutely essential 1980s Brit-Funk 12” tune, fully remastered from tapes, bespoke exact repro-labels, pressed on pristine vinyl and housed in groovy Soul Jazz / Funk Masters house bag.
