Description:

Originally released in the U.S. as KEEP ON MOVIN`. The 10th Anniversary Edition contains six remixes previously unreleased on CD.
Personnel: Shikisha, Carol Wheeler, Rose Windross (vocals); Jazzie B. (rap vocals); Kushite (flute); Simon "The Funky Ginger" Law (piano, keyboards); Crispin (percussion); Aitch B. (background vocals).
Where previous British translations of classic US black music styles had been hit and miss affairs, Jazzie B revolutionised contemporary soul music on both sides of the channel with the sublime (and occasionally ridiculous) Club Classics. Caron Wheeler`s emotive performance on the opening track, `Keep On Movin`` (the album`s title in the US) set the tone of the album. It`s not flawless - Jazzie B, genius producer and all-round music man, may be many things, but a rapper he is not. And a second great single, `Back To Life`, is included here only in `a cappella` form. When Jazzie and Nellee Hooper`s ideas and musical instincts coalesce the results boast a feel-good factor and warmth absent from recent soul music.
