For Brit soul funk heads old enough to remember, try googling for ex Capital radio's legend that is DJ Robbie Vincent. THE premier London soul/funk/disco don of the 70's/80's.

Should be a fair few archive shows on the web. I'd up some of my taped shows but the quality isn't really up to par....

You won't regret it!

Lots of soul/funk/hip-hop

They have tracklistings and you can play individual tracks within the mix. I find some amazing stuff on this site.
