Etta James - "Seven Day Fool" (3:01)
Tony Topsy - "Just A Little Bit" (2:37)
Review: The Outta Sight Soul label kept coming with the good stuff this year, this time featuring a double sider from the sadly departed R&B vocalist Etta James flipped by the unknown Tony Topsy. The 1961 classic "Seven Day Fool" is classic stompy Rhythm & Blues tackle with great lyrics in which Etta tells us about working her butt off for a whole week just to get the good loving of her man. On the flip you'll find a more bluesy rasping soul number from female vocalist Tony Topsy on "Just A Little Bit".

No Diggity (JR Dynamite edit)
No Diddley (JR Dynamite edit)
Review: Those cheeky chaps at Wah Wah Dubplate are up to mischief again as Australian DJ JR Dynamite adds Blackstreet's accapella to Hackney Colliery Band's trombone and trumpet-heavy version of a Blackstreet R&B classic from 1976. On the flip blues legend Bo Diddley gets a re-rub for the dancefloor. Already selling like hot cross buns on Easter Sunday.

K Frimpong & Super Complex Sounds - "Ahyewa" (Hide & Smile edit by Frankie Francis & Miles Cleret)
The Uhuru Dance Band - "Untitled" (Quantic edit)
The Cranes - "Joy" (Quantic edit)
Review: Soundway is always there for our obscure afro-jazz needs and 2012 was no different. They did pull off something special on this collaborative effort 7", bringing you the sweltering body funk of K Frimpong & Super Complex Sounds' Ahyewa, edited here by bad boys Hide and Smile, where the dup create a real jumble out of that clicky percussion. On the flip, Quantic is called for remix duties on both jams, the first being The Uhuru Dance Band with "Untitled", a hand-clapping make-you-wanna-move sort of thing, followed beautifully by The Cranes' "Joy", another incredible touch on the original, adding a lil nit of extra oomph to that beat! Warmly recommended.

Body Fusion (short version)
Body Fusion (long version)
Review: Extremely welcome reissue for one of the absolute holy grails of the rare groove scene. Ultra-rare and super-expensive in it's original 1980 release, this incredibly sexy tune from Chicago band Starvue fully deserves its status as a true soul anthem. Produced by The Chi-lites' Clarence Johnson, 'Body Fusion' never lets up the dancefloor pressure from beginning to end - the wonderful fusion of achingly beautiful strings, loping bass, flutes, the coolest fingersnaps and of course the mesmerising vocals of Tony Hicks combine to create an intensely emotional and rolling momentum that builds and builds. A masterpiece of soul history that still sounds as fresh as ever - essential!

The Continental Showstoppers - "Not Too Young"
The Valentines - "Breakaway"
Review: Nashville's soul scene has been well documented over the years - names like Ann Sexton, Brief Encounter & Jackie Beavers immediately spring to mind - but here Jazzman/Soul 7 dig a little deeper to unearth a couple of funkier-than-usual Northern Soul anthems. The Continental Showstoppers cover version of Jackey Beaver's penned soul classic has been lovingly restored and the label claim it sounds better than the original! On the flipside The Valentines deliver an irresistible poppy soul dancer with "Breakway" that should have been a hit but wasn't. Proper Wigan Casino fodder!

The Haggis Horns - "Cockroach Grind"
The Qualitons - "Kekfeny"
The Killer Meters - "Cramp Your Style"
Review: For the last decade, Greg Boraman's Freestyle Records has championed the best in contemporary revivalist funk and soul, releasing a string of thrilling records with an authentically fuzzy feel. Here Boraman celebrates the best of contemporary underground soul across two slabs of vinyl, pairing familiar fare from the likes of Speedometer, the Haggis Horns and the Killer Meters with a skipload of slept-on fare. There's a great mix of instrumental blasters and breezy vocal cuts (see Nick Van Gelder's slick "Something's Got To Give" and Jo Stance's wonderful "Hey Girl"), with a few deliriously uptempo workouts (Renegaes of Jazz, The Mighty Showstoppers) thrown in for good measure.

Broken Beat/Nu Jazz
The Fasaans - "Tyrone"
Enjebeye - "Ario"
Review: Fasaan Recordings is a Malmo based vinyl imprint focusing on the more obscure shades of soul, funk, disco and afro related music. The debut single on the label is "Tyrone", a delicious slice of library soul and deep, afro-tinged jazzual grooves with plucked strings, violins and muted brass. On the flip, the pace picks up a notch with label mates Enjebeye's more club friendly ''Ario'' tapping into a more traditional afrobeat groove with throbbing live bass and great brass sections coming across as Sweden's alternative to Quantic Soul Orchestra. Juno is one of the few shops around the world lucky enough to get this labels releases so don't sleep.
