5.0 out of 5 stars The authentic mod club sound, 8 Nov 2002
By A Customer
The sound of early 60s r&b is all the rage on the UK mod club circuit - primarily at such venues as The Hideaway Club in Manchester, but also 'down south' at London's Money's Getting' Cheaper & Shotgun, all packed out with a mod & soul crowd eager to keep the dancefloor full.

It's the sound of the original mod scene, but to many, it's also sound of today's mod scene. It's the bridge between the blues acts of the 50s, and the more mainstream soul of the 60s.

The rise in interest in r&b hasn't passed the Kent label by. Last year they released the essential 'New Breed Of R&B', focusing on the original Kent label & the sound of Manchester's Hideaway club, compiled by the Hideaway team with Kent's Ady Croasdell.

It was always going to be hard to follow that up, but they have done...in style, and with a little help from more of the mod scene's favourite dj's.

'New Breed Rhythm & Blues' is indeed compiled by some of the mod scene's biggest draws - Roger Banks, Damian Hewitt, Paul Welsby & Kent's Ady Croasdell, and focuses on the King label, with tracks drawn predominantly (but not exclusively) from the years 1962 to 1964. And to be perfectly honest, it's a 'must own' album for any r&b fan.

The album starts with the stormin 'Burnt Toast & Black Coffee' by Mike Pedicin - pure raw r&b, setting the scene for the preceding 23 tracks! Picking tracks is difficult, as there really aren't any weak ones on there. You'll doubtless be familiar with the much played 'I'm Shakin' by Little Willie John. Hideaway regulars will be pleased by the inclusion of Freddy King's 'Some Other Day, Some Other Time' (Freddy's uptempo blues stormer 'Now I've Got A Woman' is also on here).

Personal favourites are James Duncan's 'Three Little Pigs' (check out that guitar!), The 5 Royales' 'Think' and Bobby King's 'Thanks Mr Postman', a pop song bursting to escape it's r&b confines!

Like all Kent compilations - liner notes and packaging are immaculate, more of a history lesson than track descriptions!

There have been some excellent soul/r&b collections out this year. But this, alongside the 'New Breed Of R&B' (from last year), falls into the 'essential purchase' category for any self respecting r&b fan. It isn't going to be to everyone's taste...it's a large step away from 'northern' (if that's your thing). But it's certainly my thing!
