The Whole Nine Yards Ep 34 Sunday 18th September 2021 3-5pm with Roy Stannard on Burgess Hill Community Radio 103.8FM www.burgesshillradio.co.uk/listenlive
Dancefloor Jazz
That junction point where jazz meets soul meets hip-hop is the destination we are heading for this week. From the late eighties to the mid-nineties this genre led by labels such as Talkin’ Loud, Acid Jazz and others led the way in crossing genres and styles and led established labels such as Blue Note to reconsider their stables and twist and play with their back catalogues – most memorably in the case of US3. This week we play the likes of Tom Misch, The Young Disciples, Incognito from the UK as well as A Tribe Called Quest, GangStarr, Guru, De La Soul and and MC Solaar and Les Nubians from France via Chad, showing that the US and the UK don’t hold the monopoly on this rich vein of music. The result was floorfilling, exuberant and musically pioneering.
