    A rarities-loaded collection of exceptional soul reecords, gospel-soaked chorus, crackling percussion, and boomy brassy funk numbers from the vaults of The Rojac catalogue.

    Founded in 1963 Rojac Records was Jack Taylor's attempt to capture the musical pulse of Harlem. Through out the 60s (and into the 80s) the imprint released a steady stream of releases. Whether they were hits or near hits they're all exceptional in quality.
