‘The Best from The Mob’ is a compilation CD produced at the Redfern Community Centre – the first of many! It features a vibrant selection of tracks by Sydney-based artists, many of them Indigenous, all of whom used the recording facilities at RCC during 2005. Highlights include: ‘Dreamtime Stories’ by Campbelltown’s Richie Jarrett – one of the talented Jarrett mob from Bowraville NSW; ‘My Boy’ by melodic, urban songwriter Tim Bishop; ‘Urban Misfitz’ by New Zealand-hailing rapping crew Urban Prophetz; ‘Watersong’ by powerful singer and Gadigal Language teacher Dr Greenthumb; ‘Travelled So Far’ by Irish-Aboriginal songwriter Rhubee Neale – the gal who brings the big smile from her original home in Central Australia…and several other great tracks by up ’n’ coming local artists and community based music projects – among them the Sydney Street Choir.
