"The contents of this mini-refrigerator include the final recorded output of Nashville's soul-jazz champions, the Coolin' System. Recorded on Memorial Day 2012, this session represents the peak of a 7 piece band that lit up the catalog of GED Soul Records with their finely-tuned, straight to tape sessions. The band members all moved on to even greater things, and the session remained locked in the vaults. Until now! Tackling classic deep-cut tunes by Horace Silver, Jimmy McGriff, Lou Donaldson, Cedar Walton, and many more, this record mixes a fierce funk attack with movements that take the listener straight into outer space. By the end of the classic Keith Mansfield tune, 'Soul Thing,' you will want to flip this record right back to Side A and start it all over again." Includes download code.

"Nashville soul-jazz heavyweights the Coolin' System return with their sophomore 7" on G.E.D. Soul Records. This smoking 45 features two tracks recorded during the band's residency in G.E.D. Soul's Poor Man Studios for their self titled debut full length. The A side showcases a scorching rendition of Eddie Harris's 'I Need Some Money' featuring A.J. Eason, the label's resident soul shouter holding down vocal duties. The Coolin' System's above average musicians and A.J. Eason's rough and tough vocal performance make this Eddie Harris tribute stand toe to toe with the original."

LP version. "In a city renowned for its country music scene, it takes a sharp group of musicians outside of the box to garner very much attention. Yet, a band like Nashville's the Coolin' System does it handily (and with a significant amount of style to spare). G.E.D. Soul Records is pleased to be the home for this Music City soul-jazz super group's debut full length. The self titled album features choice interpretations of deep cuts from some of the genre's greatest heavy weights. Jack McDuff, Richard 'Groove' Holmes, Eddie Harris and others get the 'system' treatment on this soul-jazz tour de force recorded live in the studio in the spirit of a jazz recording. Heavy on grooves and solid interplay between musicians gives this record the feel of being transported to a smoky jazz club back in the day." Includes MP3 download.
