Egon and Peanut Butter Wolf founded Soul-Cal Records in 2003 to release reissues of the rare modern-soul and funky disco treasures that they both love. Though the label's name references its Southern California home-base, Soul-Cal's first release, Luther Davis's two masterpieces "You Can Be A Star" and "To Be Free," is the only release on the label that springs from the West Coast.

Soul-Cal's first releases followed the path of Egon's record collection, and cross over between the reissues on Soul-Cal and his reissues on Now-Again and Stones Throw were obvious; C.Henry Wood's sole 45 saw release on the same label that released Bad Medicine's "Trespasser," one of the stand-out tracks on The Funky 16 Corners compilation. Lately however, collaborations with researchers/collectors such as Cincinatti's Chris Burgan, New York's David Griffiths and North Carolina's Jason Perlmutter have placed records like Pure Essence, Key and Cleary and Mixed Feelings within Soul-Cal's catalog.

Soul-Cal exclusively distributes these releases, under license from Now-Again. A full length compilation album, accompanied by a Peanut Butter Wolf mix CD and a merchandise line are planned for 2009.
