Released by Acid Jazz, it plays like a guided tour through the records, radio finds and dancefloor favourites that have shaped both compilers’ listening lives, with Martin Freeman’s selections sitting alongside those of label founder and longtime DJ Eddie Piller.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes this set useful as well as enjoyable is its range. Freeman moves from Santana, Kadhja Bonet and Asha Puthli to jazz picks such as Gary Burton and Buddy Rich, while Piller folds in cult soundtrack music, soul, jazzy disco and Brit-funk, including Hi-Tension, Light Of The World, Ace and Brian Auger. The sequence also reaches into French ye-ye with Jacqueline Taieb and Jacques Dutronc, so the album feels less like a genre survey than a well-argued case for how these scenes connect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat breadth is matched by presentation. Acid Jazz has given the set a gatefold sleeve with photography by Dean Chalkley, plus liner notes from Freeman and Piller that underline the compilation’s curatorial angle. For anyone who likes their compilations to do more than collect songs, \u003cem\u003eOn The Corner\u003c\/em\u003e works as both a stylish listen and a sharply assembled map of shared musical obsessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2xLP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGatefold sleeve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLiner notes by Martin Freeman and Eddie Piller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhotography by Dean Chalkley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \n\n    \n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Release tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n          \n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003e LP\u003c\/div\u003e\n          \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnits: \u003c\/strong\u003e 2\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/funk-soul-music-vinyl-records\"\u003eSoul \u0026amp; Funk\u003c\/a\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Tracklist tab content --\u003e\n  \n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Dutch Vinyl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50770121228353,"sku":"8587059","price":70.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1474\/5258\/files\/218316-various-martin-freeman-and-eddie-piller.jpg?v=1792625434","url":"https:\/\/www.dutchvinyl.com.au\/products\/various-artists-martin-freeman-and-eddie-piller-present-on-the-corner-390632","provider":"Dutch Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
