How did you get into Jazz Funk Soul, Boogie and US Soulful Garage? |
|||||||||||||||||
|
|
|
Sneaking into see Saturday Night Fever, and wanting to be John Travolta. It was the only thing going on for someone without a penny in a small midlands town! It got me into nightclubs. I'd also loved Earth Wind and Fire. Like everyone else I bought as many different coloured 12' s as I could find! |
