Herbie Hancock: Sunlight versie op vinyl LP in standaard editie. Deze specifieke uitgave werd uitgebracht in Europa bij uitgeverij Music On Vinyl in samenwerking met Columbia op 8. december 2017.

"Sunlight" by HERBIE HANCOCK is a jazz-funk-fusion album from 1978. The album features HANCOCK's vocals via vocoder, as well as drummer Tony Williams and bassist Jaco Pastorius. It was released at a time when HANCOCK was moving towards mainstream smooth jazz/R&B fusion, much like jazz fusion pianist PATRICE RUSHEN. The hit "I Thought It Was You" comes from the album. As a whole, the album leans more towards funk and less towards jazz and is reminiscent of the electro-funk tracks of the time. It heralds the beginning of the electro style of the 80s era, which was perfected on later HERBIE albums such as "Future Shock" and "Sound-System".

Album valt binnen het genre Elektronische muziek, Jazz, Funk/Soul, Fusion, Disco en Jazz-Funk. 180g Vinyl.
