Alfonzo - Alfonzo [Japanese Import] Alfonzo

First-Ever LP Reissue! Includes Obi Strip

A long-overlooked gem for fans of Michael Jackson, Alphonso's debut album finally receives its first-ever vinyl reissue. Inspired by the sound, style, and artistry of the King of Pop, the album pays heartfelt tribute to the golden era of late-'70s and early-'80s R&B while showcasing Alphonso's own remarkable vocal talent.

Produced by Clay McMurray—best known for his work with Smokey Robinson, The Supremes, and other Motown legends since the 1960s - the album also features members of Atlantic Starr, including Jonathan Lewis, resulting in an exceptionally polished and authentic production.

Opening track "Your Booty Makes Me Moody For Your Love" immediately evokes the infectious energy and sophisticated groove associated with Michael Jackson's Off the Wall and Thriller era. The album also includes a superb cover of Boz Scaggs' classic "Lowdown," offering a fascinating interpretation that will instantly appeal to fans of smooth '80s R&B and sophisticated soul.

An essential rediscovery for collectors of classic R&B, boogie, and modern soul, this first-ever vinyl reissue shines a well-deserved spotlight on one of the era's most underrated releases.
