"GARDEN OF EDEN" became an instant sensation via white label promotion copy plays. It instantly picked up support from radio stations Mi-Soul (instant playlist), Panacea, Solar and Starpoint. It became Terry Jones' breakout record at the recent Southport Soul Weekender and had Modern Soul DJs begging for a copy. A special reaction to a very special record. Produced by veteran house heads Phil Hooton and Mark Gamble, the duo have created a monster track that straddles soul, jazz, and house. Commentator Yogi Haughton highlighted the "ambiguous nature" of "GARDEN OF EDEN" as it merges soul and jazzy house.The bedrock of the track is a newly recorded (with ace musos lured into the recording studio) version of Mezzoforte's Iceland jazz-funk classic "GARDEN PARTY". Phil and Mark then composed a brand new composition to go over the top of the track, and to regally complete their new concoction got UK soulful house royalty vocalist extraordinaire Pete Simpson to sing it. And what a performance Pete delivers!First press is 300 copies only.Tracklisting:A. Garden of Eden (Vocal) B. Garden of Eden (Vocal Trombone Mix)
