| The London rare groove scene came about when the soul boy scene met the reggae sound system scene in the mid 80s. as the eighties progressed the reggae sounds were becoming overwhelmingly digital and hardcore and lovers rock music's heyday was pretty over. Vibes in the reggae dances matched the riddims- quite dark and militant. A lot of blokes standing around juggling their balls and looking moody- especially once the girls had all started going to soul dances. Sounds like Saxon and Coxsone at this time would always run a littles rare groove or soul set during the night so people could mellow out and dance. The girls liked the sexy mid tempo sound of the rare 70s and 80s funky soul tunes getting played by the sound systems like the one you're about the hear. Blues dances were held in halls, houses, warehouses etc and the sound could also be heard in certain clubs like Dingwalls up town and Steppers in Brixton.
This dance is from 1990 which was really the peak of the scene. It was held in south London, which is my side of town (I always like finding tapes from my area) The sounds are Latest Edition, Mistri & A Touch Of Class
would love a venue and date for this if anyone works it out cheers |
