Label GB

BBE is a UK based record label, short for Barely Breaking Even. Founded in 1996 by Peter Adarkwah and Ben Jolly, the label releases both original works and compilations. Known for their compilation series such as "The Beat Generation" and "Kings of...," BBE features a wide range of collections in genres like jazz, soul, hip-hop, r'n'b, house, drum'n'bass, and more. With a diverse roster of artists including *J Dilla*, *Pete Rock*, *Roy Ayers*, *Marley Marl*, and many others, BBE continues to be a prominent force in the music industry.
The label's association with German label G-Stone Recordings has further expanded its reach. Since its inception, BBE has released numerous acclaimed albums and compilations that have garnered critical acclaim and commercial success.
With an extensive catalog spanning over two decades, BBE remains dedicated to showcasing exceptional talent from various genres while consistently delivering high-quality music to its loyal fanbase worldwide.

For The Love Of Money is along-lost Afro-disco-boogie-reggae masterpiece from Liberian duo Zack and Geebah, vinyl copies of which change hands for eye-watering sums on eBay. As part of its Tabansi Gold reissue project, BBE Music gives the album a top-quality, heavy-vinyl reissue, with original artwork, for the first time anywhere in the world outside 1980s Nigeria. Boogie classics like For The Love Of Money and No Peace No Love rub shoulders with the island-funk sound of Take It Easy and the Toots-tinged funk-reggae Home Is Home, on to the soulful mid-tempo magic of My Luck Will Shine and Rock To The Music. That old cliché ‘every one’s a winner’ is -for once-a truism!

Rare masterpiece from pioneering Liberian duo Zack and Geebah. First ever reissue of this 1980s album, originally released on Nigeria's Tabansi Records.
