Nice & Slow: Expanded Edition

Nice & Slow: Expanded Edition

Digitally remastered and expanded edition of this 1976 album from the Jamaican singer, songwriter and musician. NICE AND SLOW was Green's debut solo album and was released on the EMI record label to high acclaim, despite not garnering the commercial success the album deserved. As was the burgeoning trend at the time Green appropriated the fledgling Disco and Soul sounds of the mid 70's and scored a massive club hit with the album's title track and opener which reached #1 on the U.S. Disco charts and #17 on the U.K. Pop charts. Green's Jamaican roots are still very much in evidence on the album, especially on' Flip' and album track 'You Came, You Saw, You Conquered' which both exemplify the singer's spirited vocal style. During the '60s, Green sang vocals with Jamaican band the Pioneers and in the '70s toured internationally with the great Jimmy Cliff as his drummer before embarking on a solo career in 1976.
