Description
CRAIG CHARLES is a man of many talents… actor, poet, TV presenter and, of course, acclaimed soul and funk DJ. After his spell on Corrie (his character, Lloyd Mullaly, apart from being a taxi driver was also a DJ!), Craig took on more and more DJ responsibility. With a passion for soul and funk (acquired growing up in Liverpool 8) he secured spots on BBC 6 Music and his ‘Funk And Soul Show’ quickly became one of that station’s most listened to programmes. That success prompted live gigs throughout clubland, and his shows were always sell out affairs.
Last year CC came up with a stupendous compilation ‘THE CRAIG CHARLES TRUNK OF FUNK’ Vol 1., a handpicked selection of soul and funk gems, all hallmarked with that special raw, earthy, organic soul and/or funk flavour that is Craig’s calling card.
This new “trunk” Volume 2, is a 19 tracker which opens with an exclusive mix of the Allergies’ ‘Move On Baby’ – complete with an intro tailored just for this collection. As with Vol. 1 which featured JOSH TESKEY on Track 1, Craig also gives a nod to Oz funk/soul artists THE BAMBOOS on Vol. 2. Buy BOTH volumes for an instant party, would be our advice!!
