Originally a hit for the Sandpebbles in 1967, it wasn't until we heard Dusty Springfield's cover of it on wefunk radio that we were inspired us to revisit this feel-good soulful breakbeat monster. Big thanks to the http://wefunkradio.com crew for years of inspiration.. and to Dusty of course.. for such a wonderful tune in the first place :)

"When we walk down the street Oh, we don't care who we see or who we meet. Don't have to run (run), don't have to hide (hide) 'Cause we have something burning inside. 'Cause we got love (love) power (power) And it's the greatest power of them all. Oh, we've got love(love) power (power) And together we cannot fall.  Sometimes we're up (up), sometimes we're down (down), But our feet are always on the ground. We always laugh (laugh), don't have to cry (cry) And this is the reason why: 'Cause we got love (love) power (power), And it's the greatest power of them all, hey, hey, hey! We've got love (love) power (power) And together we cannot fall. ......... Oh, right... Hey, sometimes we're up (up), sometimes we're down (down), But out feet are always on the ground. We always laugh (laugh), we don't have to cry (cry), And this is the reason why: 'Cause we got love (love) power (power) And it's the greatest power of them all, hey,hey, hey! We got love (love) power (power), And together we can't fall, hey, hey, hey.  We got love (love) power (power) And it's the greatest power of them all, hey, hey, hey..."

FFD On The Couch ft Wandering Eye (instrumental > album bites)

Out digitally on November 16th via Pedigree Cuts. Featuring The Brand New Heavies and Baby Bam (Jungle Brothers)

‘Put Your Hands Together’ brings together some of their key collaborators of recent years to make up an exquisitely produced and supremely groovy collection.

Fans of the groove maestros won't be strangers to the red herring (but darned cute) cover image - but seconds into track ’Starsky And June’ reveals a modern funksploitation classic featuring scene veterans The Brand New Heavies. ‘I Don’t Follow The Trend’ featuring Baby Bam (Jungle Brothers) from received numerous plays in the summer from Zoe Ball on her BBC R2 show and Lauren Laverne and Steve Lamaq on their BBC 6 music shows.

Other participants such as Freak Power’s Ashley Slater (via his Kitten And The Hip project) and piano genius Dan Hewson make this a record of such caliber that it plays out like this year’s prime crate digger compilation. It’s completely mind-blowing that this is the creme of an act’s output over a two year period and if mention of their co-conspirators isn’t enough - let that thought be your recommendation and hit play NOW!

Fat Freddy's Drop’s pirate soul train, resolutely independent, worldwide.

Formed in 1999 in Wellington, New Zealand our sound draws inspiration from almost every part of the black music lexicon. Soul drenched vocals and jazz harmonies collide with tape delays and echo chambers, underpinned by a rhythm section as comfortable laying down a throbbing, techy soundscape as they are a swampy blues stomp.
