That song appeared on a compilation on Acid Jazz records called Acid Jazz
Mo' Jazz. Track listing is:

Mr Tanaka - Brand New Heavies
Astralisation - Snow Boy
Sweet Ohm - Ohm
Natural Feeling - The Whole Thing
Super Strut - The Apostles
The Latin One - New Jersey Kings
Congalegre - Soul Station
Drifting - The Ulf Sandberg Quartet

I don't know if you'll still be able to get the record. It might have
appeared on some other compilations (Totally Wired?) or on a BNH single.
Don't know. Hope that's some help.

Cheers,
Alex
