    The killer Strange Games… series which began in the summer of 1997 returns with volume five!!!!

    This essential compilation contains a wide variety of styles of tracks, from classic 70's Rare Groove, 80's Soul, Latin-Jazz-Funk dance-floor fillers as well as lesser known delights. A more accessible diggers delight if you wish with an emphasis on quality track and not just songs worth having for a 2 second sample.

    Featuring a much more worldly selection than its predecessors - tracks by the multi platinum selling War, to Sylvia ( Founder of Sugarhill Records) sit side by side with world music underground icons like C.K. Mann and Francisco Aguabella. Absolutely no fillers just pure killers on this one!

    Highly Recommended!!!
