Herbie Hancock: Sunlight version on vinyl LP in Standard edition. This particular edition was published in Europe in publishing company Music On Vinyl in cooperation with Columbia on 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 spans genres Electronic, Jazz, Funk / Soul, Fusion, Disco and Jazz-Funk. 180g Vinyl.
