180g Vinyl Reissue Remastered From the Original Analogue Master Tapes & Cut At Abbey Road Studios

Across the nine albums he released with 20th Century Records between 1973 and 1979, Barry White established the new sound of orchestral soul that became an enduring R&B staple. Fifteen years after his untimely death in 2003 at the age of 58, Mercury celebrates Whites legendary label run by remastering these long out of print albums from their original analogue master tapes for the first time since the 70s. Presented with the original sleeve and label art, the 180g vinyl reissues were cut at Abbey Road Studios in London to guarantee the highest possible audio quality.

White kept his R&B crown intact as the 70s drew to a close with I Love to Sing the Songs I Sing, his ninth self-produced collection issued in April 1979. A fine mix of smooth ballads and entertaining up-tempo numbers, it features the title track Motown homage and peaked at No. 40 on Billboards R&B chart. I Love to Sing the Songs I Sing was Whites final LP for 20th Century-Fox Records, after which he released new recordings on his own Unlimited Gold imprint.
