Me - a former late 70s/early 80s soul/jazz-funk club DJ and since then being involved in soul/disco radio....... and an avid collector.
Soon I will be selling everything in the CD collection I have built up over the last 20 years.... probably about 1500 commercial/promo CDs...
About 15 years ago everything went from records onto DAT and then onto CDR. As they were released I collected CDs to replace everything.
Rare or odd tracks not available on CD are grouped on Studio Promo CDRs.
Over the past 2 years everything has been ripped (lovingly) onto hard disk with back-ups and very soon now I will be starting to sell all CDs......
The collection contains many CDs of original albums + compilations like Mastercuts/Funky Collector/Deepbeats etc. There are also many obscure/odd CD compilations containing an odd sought-after track otherwise not available on CD. I have spent too much time (to recall) hunting down CD versions of certain tracks and many many are here in this collection on some weird CDs!
The collection is pretty complete 60s 70s & 80s but also has some of the better modern soul/r&b stuff.
Jazz-Funk - extensive
Soul - extensive
Disco - mostly the more soulful/funky stuff
Funk - extensive
Boogie - extensive
Reggae - most of the big tunes relevant to the UK soul scene
Before offering through Gemm, Ebay, Discogs & my own website I am happy to hear from any members looking for specific CDs or specific tracks on CD/CDR.
