History:
HF&S started in London four years ago, where it showcased the best bands playing the authentic heavy soul sound of the late 60s/early 70s along with the cream of the soul/funk DJ scene.
Policy:
At HF&S, we only play off original vinyl 45s: absolutley no CDs or reissues. And the kind of music is, you guessed it: heavy funk and soul!
The Album:
