Description

Various Artists – Catawba Records: 40th Anniversary Compilation (Limited Edition Vinyl)
Celebrate four decades of dancefloor magic with this limited edition 40th anniversary release from Catawba Records—the influential label founded in the late '70s by Richard Mack, a CBS Records promo legend behind hits by Earth, Wind & Fire, The Jacksons, and Santana.

Throughout the early to mid-’80s, Catawba became a powerhouse incubator for soul, funk, and club talent, releasing music from names like Dutch Robinson, Jimmy Castor, Wilson Pickett, Jackie Moore, and Brook Benton. This celebratory release brings together classic edits, rare 7" and 12" mixes, and previously unreleased gems—all pressed to vinyl for the first time in decades.

Presented in a gatefold sleeve packed with label history, this compilation is a vibrant tribute to one of the most underrated imprints in dance music history.
