Bargrooves presents Vintage Grooves: A Journey Through Classic and Rare Tracks

Bargrooves are really branching out! While their trademark sleek, sophisticated house compilations continue to excite and enthuse those who love such funky, jazzy house excursions, the label have thoughtfully provided another style marker with this selection of classic vintage grooves, compiled by Jockey Slut editor and occasional Bargrooves contributor Rob Wood.

'Vintage Grooves' starts on a wonderfully sleazy note with the lights down low and the doors locked as Frank de Jo Jo asks us to 'Turn Off The Lights' - things carry on in a similarly funky and intense style as we hear masterful selections from the likes of Grace Jones, the Pointer Sisters, Hall and Oates, Aretha Franklin, Main Ingredient, Lyn Christopher, Gwen McRae and more!

We'll leave the final words to Rob Wood: "When asked to come up with a selection of tracks that were worthy of the term "vintage", my first thought was to choose songs that have left a lasting impression. Songs that were special and could be linked together not through chronological order but because they all shone with class and character."
