Produced by Wayne Henderson (The Jazz Crusaders), Pleasure's 1977 cult-classic album delivers instant party vibes, thanks to a lively blend of soul, funk, disco, and jazz. Returning to vinyl for the first time since its original release, Joyous was cut from the original analog tapes by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio and pressed on audiophile-quality 180-gram vinyl at RTI. The LP is housed in a tip-on jacket, featuring faithfully reproduced original designs. Limited Edition.
