Soul II Soul is a 2-time Grammy winning act that emerged at the end of the 1980s from London. The group initially attracted attention as a sound system, playing records at house and street parties (where their clothing style - dubbed "Funki Dred" - quickly made a splash, inspiring them to start a line of clothing). Founded by Jazzie B and featuring a changing roster of other musicians - notably Nellee Hooper, Simon Law, Phillip 'Daddae' Harvey and Caron Wheeler - Soul II Soul's experiments in music-making of their own resulted in the dub plate "Fairplay," which secured them a deal with Virgin Records. They had huge hits in 1989 with the singles "Keep on Movin'" and "Back to Life (However Do You Want Me)," both from their debut album Club Classics Vol. I. These songs (both featuring Wheeler on vocals) set the tone for early 90s mainstream dance music in the UK.

    we reminisce about you soul II soul... we reminisce and feel good and a little sad about

    the past, when we were younger and go dancing to sound like this, changing tapes which you have to mix for your friends and which means patience and passion for the music because you have to choose the tracks and mainly you have to LISTEN on the tracks, and a tape was more then 2 hours of passion on it.. but life goes on and on...but i miss that times

    respect to soul II soul
