The Jazz Room Vol 2 — Paul Murphy

Jazz Dance Pioneer Paul Murphy releases Vol 2 of ‘The Jazz Room’ Compilation

From the late 70s and 80’s, legendary UK-based Paul Murphy became a innovative pioneer DJ among the jazz dance scene, performing at now-historic venues like Horshoe, Wag, and Electric Ballroom. He was arguably the first to put on jazz-focused club nights in London and surrounding areas. Influential DJ/radio broadcaster Gilles Peterson once stated, “Paul Murphy found almost every jazz dancefloor classic.” Building on the foundation of both his superb label Jazz Room Records, and the outstanding first compilation he compiled for BBE in 2019, he returns with the much-anticipated follow-up, The Jazz Room Vol.2.
