Followed by a full vinyl playback on an audiophile sound system courtesy of Graham’s Hi-Fi.

Jazzie B revolutionised black British music when he founded the band Soul II Soul. Their debut 1989 album became an international phenomenon; its blend of soul, reggae and funk landing perfectly amid the exploding house music culture of that year. The global musical landscape was changed forever.
