    Norman Jay's seminal series returns featuring party-starting tracks from the like of James Brown, Georgie Fame, Aretha Franklin, Loleatta Holloway and more. Here are a few words that the man himself has to say on the release: 

    “These are all the sort of tracks that I’d play in the early morning sunshine whilst we were setting up at Notting Hill Carnival. It’s stuff that I’d play for myself before the crowds turned up. Just that classic Good Times mix with all the different elements I love: disco, Philly, James Brown, 90s hip-hop, reggae, etc.”
