The Brand New Heavies - Original Flava Vinyl Record

Step into the groove-laden origins of The Brand New Heavies with Original Flava, a deep-cut collection that captures the acid jazz pioneers before they hit mainstream fame. This vinyl release is a must-have for fans of '90s soul, funk, and jazz fusion, smooth, funky, and full of infectious rhythm.

Original Flava features early versions and rare recordings from the band’s pre-debut days, showcasing their raw, instrumental brilliance. Tracks like “Put the Funk Back In It” and “Boogie” deliver tight, horn-drenched funk that could easily set a dancefloor ablaze, while the jazzy cool of “Gimme One of Those” hints at the sophistication that would later define their sound.

It’s a fascinating listen, not only for its groove-heavy jams but also for the insight it offers into the band’s creative evolution. Before the vocal hits came along, this was The Brand New Heavies in their purest form: all rhythm, vibe, and musical chemistry.

Whether you’re a long-time fan or a crate-digger discovering them for the first time, Original Flava is a soulful time capsule that still slaps. Funky, fresh, and undeniably stylish, it’s the kind of record that deserves a proud spot in any vinyl lover’s collection.
