South Bronx Story 2
Soul Jazz
PUNK FUNK
SOUL JAZZ RECORDS release an album of rarities and alternate versions from New York Punk-Funk legends ESG.
ESG are the Scroggins’ sisters Renee, Valerie and Marie, hailing from the South Bronx. Their place in history is legendary placing them at the heart of Post-Punk, Hip-Hop and New York Dance music. From playing the opening night of Manchester’ HACIENDA to the closing night of LARRY LEVAN’s PARADISE GARAGE, ESG are a truly unique phenomenon.
‘South Bronx Story 2’ gathers together rarities from the group’s 25 year career (and still going strong!). Featuring alternate mixes of classic tracks such as “You’re No Good”, alongside the legendary New York cut-up mix of “Moody” and “The Beat”(Dance to the beat of Moody), the Paradise Garage anthem “Standing in Line” as well as tracks from the notorious “Sample Credits Don’t Pay Our Bills” release.
Super-rare tracks, out of print for over 20 years, makes this album essential for any ESG fan. THE GUARDIAN “ESG sound like nothing else. Everything else is a distraction.” … MOJO “Simply defies passing musical fashions” … DJ “ESG still sound light years ahead”. … 3D WORLD “the original progenitors of punk-funk…cool” … BEAT
"a damn exciting album.” … LIFE LOUNGE êêêê1/2 “pioneering force of punk-funk… jaunty funk infused bass lines.”
