Creative Funk was a group of friends/ musicians all aged between 17 and 21 from Jamaica, Queens, NYC. An unknown group, they decided to take the grassroots, DIY approach when releasing their first record. They started their own record label, and with the help of their bass player’s father, Deek Deberry, and released their first record “Ready Made Family”. A slow moving ballad, this side sold 25,000 plus in the NYC and surrounding areas. Soon major labels came knocking, and the mighty Bell Records won the bidding war and landed Creative Funk. Their self made record was released to the national record buying public, where for the next 2 and a half years they would go on making music. Creative Funk, as I stated previously, all hailed from Jamaica, Queens, except lead singer Diane Jenkins, who was from Brooklyn.

Level 42 At the beginning of their career, Level 42 was squarely a jazz-funk fusion band, contemporaries of fellow Brit funk groups like Atmosfear, Light of the World, Incognito, and Beggar & Co. By the end of the ’80s, however, the band — whose music was instantly recognizable from Mark King’s thumb-slap bass technique and associate member Wally Badarou’s synthesizer flourishes — had crossed over to the point where they were often classified as sophisti-pop and dance-rock, equally likely to be placed in the context of Sade and the Style Council as any group that made polished, upbeat, danceable pop/rock.

At the start of the 60s, a new wave of gospel-influenced jazz started to emerge, with hits such as Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers' "Moanin'" and Cannonball Adderley's "Work Song" epitomizing this evolution in the genre. The terms "soul jazz" and "funky jazz" were coined as a way to describe this new sound that was making an impact in the US and also on the other sides of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.

'Jungle Music' chronicles the years between 1976and 1986, covering Gibbons' intrinsic musical odyssey from the beginning to the end. An essential musical document, it highlights the journey from his early days when he pioneeredthe use of reel to reel re-edits (Double Exposure's 'Ten Percent' and Jakki's 'Sun Sun Sun'), to groundbreaking leftfield disco (the loose and adventurous remix of Dinosaur L's 'Go Bang') and cult electro and hip hop jams (Strafe and Harlequin Fours' 'Set It Off'). An often overlooked figure in thehistory of dance music, this astounding compilation finallygives the recognition that Walter Gibbons deserves.

We can't think of many other performers like the singer/songwriter/dancer/actress Asha Puthli who have excelled in such a broad range of genres. From 60s psych, Classical Indian music, Free Jazz, Pop, Soul, Disco, to Rock, the list goes on. A 'best-of' or an 'essential collection' is always going to be a subjective thing, but for what is unbelievably the first official compilation covering the full breadth of Asha's illustrious career, we aimed to provide a snapshot into her ever-evolving musical journey and a tribute to the vast richness of her catalogue.
