RK45034 THE HAWK feat. Little Hannah Collins - "Don't Judge A Book By Its Cover" / THE LINK QUARTET - "If You Wanna Be My Man feat. Gizelle Smith" 45/Digital Download.

This teaser from the forthcoming MO’ RECORD KICKS compilation features 2 brand new singles! Scott Milsom aka THE HAWK, bass player from critically acclaimed UK funk heroes Big Boss Man teams up with Little Hannah Collins (former player/vocalist with The Heavy) for this new project reminiscent of the classic sounds of northern soul, motown and rare grooves, yet with a modern twist. “Don’t Judge a Book By Its Cover” is the first single produced by this new outfit and has already gained the support of Craig Charles (BBC 6), Henry Storch (Unique), Francesco Adinolfi (Rai 2) Rob Da Bank (BBC 1) and Steve Lamacq (BBC 1). On the flip side, Italian hammond maestros THE LINK QUARTET recruit the sultry vocals of new it girl of funk Gizelle Smith for a beat-driven, hammond-laden display of their versatile sound, imbued in the sweet soul chant of Miss Smith. “If You Wanna Be My Man” is a driving piece of music that captivates with its hypnotic melody and raw rhythm, confirming that when two powerhouses such as Link Quartet and Gizelle collaborate, the result is garantied!
