Almost unused, in beautiful condition. This album is a mix by Dev Large (Bobo James) featuring tracks from Groove Merchant, a jazz label that owns numerous RearGroove soul and hip-hop source materials. It's not just a label sampler; it's a jazzy, groovy soundscape full of exploration and discovery, with techniques like double-tracking samples and scratch mixing. DEV LARGE of BUDDHA BRAND selected and mixed tracks from the prestigious label that built an era of jazz-funk/soul-jazz in the early to mid-70s. This is a masterpiece that extracts the core of rare groove and revives it for the 21st century. BUDDHA BRAND DEV LARGE aka D.L
