First released in 1997, The Best Of Fourplay showcases the smooth jazz supergroup's signature style of memorable melodies, tasteful arrangements, and addictive, toe-tapping grooves. Besides choice album cuts from Fourplay's Warner Bros repertoire, the 13-track compilation includes the band’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 new edition of the album includes the bonus track, 'The Closer I Get To You,' a duet between Patti Austin and Peabon Bryson. The album was remastered using hi-resolution digital transfers from the original analog master tapes. and is available for the first time on SACD.
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 its popularity and, to date, has released 14 albums, three of which went gold, and earned six Grammy nominations.Recorded & mixed at 24bit/96khz.
This album is recorded with audiophiles in mind and exemplifies high-definition audio, ready to be experienced on superclass HiFi stereos, in SCAD Hybrid Stereo Sound.
