In the 1970s and early 80s, Jazz Funk music swept the UK's dance floors and clubs.

This new musical sound emerged from the shadows of disco and had a fascinating impact in Britain.

Vocalist and presenter David Grant was part of the UK soul outfit Linx. So who better to revisit this unique era, which saw artists experimenting with a fusion of jazz, funk, urban dance rhythm and pop hooks.
