Fourplay -- Best of Fourplay - 2020 Remastered (White Vinyl) (180g LP)

Release date: 15 January 2021

PRODUCT DETAILS

First released in 1997, The Best Of Fourplay showcases the smooth jazz supergroup's signature style of indelible melodies, tasteful arrangements and addictive, toe-tapping grooves. Besides choice album cuts from Fourplay's Warner Bros repertoire, the 10-track LP includes the bands's hit versions of Marvin Gaye's After The Dance', fronted by the silky-voiced El De Barge, and the Isley Brothers 'Between The Sheets', featuring legendary soul singer, Chaka Khan. The album was remastered using hi-resolution digital transfers from the original analogue master tapes and manufactured with high quality 180 grams Vinyl.

A smooth jazz supergroup originally comprising Bob James (Keyboards), Lee Ritenour (guitar), Nathan East (bass) and Harvey Mason (drums), Fourplay was formed in 1990 and patented an immediately identifiable po-jazz sound with their self-titled debut album in 1991. It topped the US jazz charts and went on to sell over a million copies. Since then, the long-running group, despite a couple of line-up changes, has maintained it's popularity and, to date, has released 14 albums, three of which went gold, and earned six Grammy nominations. The lacquer cutting is done in Germany for this LP.
