Description:
Emergency by Kool & The Gang, released 28 April 2016.
This version of Emergency comes as a 1xCD. -
Digitally remastered and expanded deluxe two CD edition. If The Pointer Sisters shaped themselves to be a successful all-female black crossover pop band of the '80s then Kool & the Gang certainly proved to be the most enduring all-male counterpart to this. Originally formed as a jazz band in the early '60s (then adopting the Jazziacs moniker), they would reinvent themselves via funk in the '70s and once again in the '80s with relentlessly feel-good pop-soul. Continuing on from a decade-long reign on the charts, Kool & the Gang released their 16th studio LP, 1984's Emergency (R&B #3/Pop #13/UK #47), and continued their trend of unashamedly feel-good soulful pop music, resulting in a double-platinum album which would turn out to be the biggest international seller of their career. Emergency gave the band some of their biggest hits with 'Misled' (R&B #3/Pop #10/UK #28), 'Fresh' (R&B #1/Pop #9/UK #11), the gold certified ballad 'Cherish' (R&B #1/Pop #2/UK #4) and 'Emergency' (R&B #7/Pop #18/UK #50).
"Emergency (remastered+expanded Deluxe 2CD)" by Kool & The Gang is a definitive collector's edition of the iconic band's 1984 album, now presented in an expanded and remastered format. This deluxe set features not only the original tracks but also a wealth of bonus material including extended mixes, rare edits, and previously unreleased versions that showcase the group's dynamic range. "Emergency" was one of Kool & The Gang?s most commercially successful albums, spawning hits like "Cherish," "Fresh," and "Misled." These songs dominated charts worldwide and remain staples on dance floors to this day. Kool & The Gang are celebrated for their unique blend of funk, R&B, soul, and pop?a sound that has earned them two Grammy Awards and countless other accolades over their five-decade career. BBR (Big Break Records), renowned for its meticulous reissues of classic soul and disco albums, ensures top-notch audio quality with detailed liner notes for collectors and new fans alike.
Been waiting for this CD to be reissued for a long time and worth the wait. This is by far the most commercially successful album by Kool & the Gang. Has all the hits in album, single and extended versions those being Fresh, Misled, Emergency and Cherish. A 2 CD set which also incudes The Throwdown Mix which incudes Ged Down On It/Ladies Night/Fresh/Big Fun/Straight Ahead/Celebration/Misled and Emergency. In all a 7 track CD is expanded to 23 songs and what a treat. 5 star rating is not enough this is a Mega Release.
