Jon Lucien - Believe in Me: The Essential Selection - Music & Performance - CD

2014 17 track essential collection of original RCA & Columbia label recordings by the Caribbean-born Lucien. Dubbed 'the man with the golden throat' by Herbie Hancock, Lucien was the premier crooner of the fusion era; blessed with a deep velvety voice ideally matched to romantic ballads, his sophisticated amalgam of soul, jazz & Caribbean rhythms afforded him chart success & critical acclaim during the period of 1970-1976. His music has a timeless quality & has lived on via the dance floors of the UK Acid Jazz scene, Euro Underground & Hip Hop sample set.
