    Ace selection of sought-after late 70's to mid 80's disco / jazz funk compiled by Dave Lee aka Joey Negro on Z Records!

    Brit Funk tells the story of the underground scene in the UK when punk and disco were giving way to a new blend of jazz, soul and funk, heavily influenced by the American big hitters of the day but re-worked by the UK pioneers for the British dance floors!
