When Jazzie B and his Bristol crew released this debut--which was called Keep on Movin' in the U.S., after its first hit--in 1989, at the height of twice-a-second dance beats, it was a landmark event in the club music scene.
A fuse of r&b, reggae, African rhythms, and pure funk, Jazzie B's unique sound would be copied by several pale imitators.
Presided over by the wonderful Jazzie B and mixed like a DJ's set, this album from Bristol set the scene for the future Bristol groups Massive Attack and Portishead.

This Pittsburgh male/female dance duo had a huge international smash in 1990 with "The Power." London-based rapper Turbo B. and his cousin Jackie Harris teamed on "The Power," with Harris' curdling vocal elevating Turbo B.'s pedestrian rap.
Turbo B. himself departed in 1992, shortly after their second Arista LP, The Madman's Return, hit the streets.
Kicking off the proceedings is the blissful "Ain't Nobody" -- probably the song most closely associated with Khan -- and one of the last things she recorded with Rufus.

Fashioned by the core production duo of Jazzie B and Nellee Hooper, KEEP ON MOVIN' weaves together songs that range from the Eurobeat sound of the Pet Shop Boys ("Holdin' On Bambelela") to Afro-Caribbean jazz (which is crossed with drum machines on "African Dance").
Smoothing over Jazzie B's stentorian tone is the crystalline voice of Caron Wheeler, who is showcased on the album's two Top-20 American hits, the title track and "Back To Life."
