Strange Games & Funky Things Vol.5

Another classic compilation from the BBE back- catalogue gets re-stocked for the first time, in celebration of their 20th anniversary.The 'Strange Games' series which began in the summer of 1997, represents the blueprint for modern R&B and rap music. It joins the dots between 70s soul, 80s rare groove and 90s hip hop. This compilation contains a wide variety styles, from classic dance-floor fillers to lesser known gems. A more accessible 'digger's delight' with an emphasis on quality tracks, not just songs only worth having for a 2 second sample. Featuring a much more worldly selection than its predecessors, tracks by the multi platinum selling War and Sylvia (Founder of Sugarhill Records) sit side by side with world music icons like C.K. Mann and Francisco Aguabella. This volume is the 5th in a series of legendary 'Strange Games…' records, this time compiled by the one and only DJ Spinna.
