The group initially attracted attention as a sound system, playing records at house and street parties (where their clothing style - dubbed "Funki Dred" - quickly made a splash, inspiring them to start a line of clothing). Founded by Jazzie B and featuring a changing roster of other musicians - notably Nellee Hooper, Simon Law, Phillip 'Daddae' Harvey and Caron Wheeler - Soul II Soul's experiments in music-making of their own resulted in the dub plate "Fairplay," which secured them a deal with Virgin Records. They had huge hits in 1989 with the singles "Keep on Movin'" and "Back to Life (However Do You Want Me)," both from their debut album Club Classics Vol. I. These songs (both featuring Wheeler on vocals) set the tone for early 90s mainstream dance music in the UK.
Their follow-up album, Vol. II: 1990 - A New Decade, yielded the hits "Get a Life" and "A Dream's a Dream," the latter featuring operatic vocals by Victoria Wilson-James. While their U.S. following declined somewhat following its release, Soul II Soul continued to have hits in the UK, including 1992's #4 single, "Joy."
Soul II Soul reached Volume 5 of their series for Virgin in 1995, then released 2 more albums for Island Records.

What I loved about this group was their unique creativity in their music. Sounding like only they knew how

Taking me back to the late 80s/ early 90s. Music coming out of the UK was da shit😍

This used to be my drive home song everyday, I was stationed at Ft Drum, NY in 1989, everyday for about 3 months until me and my ex-wife moved on base, I use to play this, the length of the song got me home with about 30 seconds to spare.

Thank you for uploading. I've been looking for this for years. I just remembered the album photo, forgot the name of the band and the song so it took 25 years to find this song.
