(from Moviegrooves)
What a killer CD! An eclectic trip through the archives of KPM - one of the most famous music libraries of the 60's and 70's. This CD has got it all; ultra-smooth disco, funky big band, killer-break beat grooves, hard latin workouts and more (there's even a mad dub track!). No wonder people go crazy for the original LPs... You'll be glad you bought this. Highly Recommended.

Thanks for posting some really nice library music. These Strut releases are great, too bad they went out of business.

Strut was a really great label. Their compilations were put together by some very knowledgeable DJs. I'm fortunate to also have a couple of the AfroStrut release which are really really good.

Thanks for the comments. Much of this stuff makes the routine drive a dramatic event...

Great to see this posted.

I remember when I first heard John Cameron's "Swamp Fever"...what a funky track, what a great bridge. I still don't get tired of hearing it. Nightmares on Wax was feeling Cameron's vibe as well; it was on their DJ KICKS mix.

If anyone is looking for more Cameron, check "The Sound Gallery 1" just posted here...a laidback trippy tune "Half Forgotten Daydreams."

This is one of the best library compilations I've ever heard. Thanks.

"Second Cut" is the jam.
