Discover the Rare 1980s "Boogie" Grooves of Paul Klein’s Independent Labels in a New Essential Box Set

Bridging the fiery energy of the New York club scene with the sweet, soulful rhythms of Philadelphia, a forthcoming vinyl box set chronicles the remarkable 1980s journey of Canadian producer Paul Klein. Driven by a lifelong passion for American R&B, Klein traveled from Montreal to Philadelphia in 1981, teaming up with legendary MFSB session musicians, hitmaking songwriters like Allan Felder, and elite New York mixing engineers. Through his Montreal-based family of independent labels—including Street-Level, Hot Soul, Musicworks, and AM/FM Records—Klein produced an intoxicating sonic brew of heavy, bass-driven funk and "boogie" classics. Featuring highly coveted, rare-groove tracks from artists like Joe Freeman, Hipnotic, The Chestnut Brothers, and a pre-Milli Vanilli Johnny Davis, these releases earned Klein international acclaim as the purveyor of "Funk From The Great White North." Now, these timeless, highly sought-after dancefloor anthems have been carefully curated and preserved for collectors and passionate soul fans worldwide.
