Product description


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’. Scratch’s ‘Keep On Searching For Love’ features the uplifting vocals of Linda Taylor (who had a successful solo career on Prelude Records) and was produced by Tony Williams for his Master- Funk label. Sounding like a mixture of rare groove anthems like Gwen McCrae’s ‘All This Love I’m Giving’, Linda Williams’ ‘Elevate Your Mind’ and The Emotions’ ‘Best of Your Love’, once again with a distinct South London 80s dancefloor attitude, making ‘Keep On Searching For Love’ a modern day soulful bullet.  The flipside instrumental, ‘Eastern Lady’, comes complete with hypnotic bassline, drum machines, synths and stabbing horn lines. An absolutely essential 1980s Brit-Funk 12” tune, fully remastered from tapes, bespoke exact repro- labels, pressed on pristine vinyl and all housed in groovy Soul Jazz / Funk Masters house bag.
