Freeez - Southern Freeez

Digitally remastered and expanded two CD set, the first ever release on CD of the 1981 debut album from Freeez. Southern Freeez includes the two hit singles 'Southern Freeez' (UK #8) which was recently covered by Beverley Knight and 'Flying High' (UK #35). Freeez were the UK's leading new wave Jazz-Funk band of the early 1980's, and this expanded edition includes all their early pre-album tracks and singles as well as a complete package of all known remixes including the whole of their 1984 Anti-Freeez electro-tinged remix album. Of interest to fans too is the inclusion of a couple of completely unheard and competent demos from the period that demonstrate the virtuosity of their Jazz-Funk credentials. This edition includes a fully illustrated 16 page color booklet with reminiscences by original founding members John Rocca and Peter Maas.
