Torrent Description
Tom Browne

He played with Sonny Fortune and Lonnie Smith and was later introduced to Dave Grusin and Larry Rosen at GRP Records via Earl Klugh. Grusin and Rosen signed him to GRP (via Arista Records) and Browne broke onto the music scene in 1979 with a highly acclaimed instrumental jazz fusion album Browne Sugar, although this was not released in the UK. His first real breakthrough came in 1980 with the release of "Funkin' For Jamaica", taken from his second album Love Approach. The single hit #1 on Billboard's Hot Soul Singles for 4 weeks, and was also a UK Top 10 hit, and featured the lead vocals of Tonni Smith (later a voice allegedly utilized by S-Express on 'Theme From S-Express').
"Funkin' for Jamaica," which earned him a gold single and today, is still a favorite among dance DJ's around the world.
Continuing his association with producers Grusin and Rosen, his next albums were Yours Truly (1981), including "Fungi Mama" and "Bye Gones", and "Magic" (1982), before he signed directly to Arista. Here he progressed into an electro style of jazz with "Rockin' Radio" from a 1983 album of the same name (which also included a final GRP production "Brighter Tomorrow"). In 1984 he recorded a final Arista album Tommy Gun, which featured Siedah Garrett singing lead on the leading moment "Secret Fantasy" produced by Maurice Starr. Also in 1984 he recorded with Fuse One on their Ice album.



Funkin’ For Jamaica: Best Of Tom Browne

14 of Tom’s best tracks from the Arista years — seminal jazz funk tracks that redesigned the face of funky fusion for the 80s, and which feature some very nice tasty moments! The title cut — “Funkin For Jamaica” — is one of those old school jams we never tire of, with lots of nice choppy rhythms, and some great horn work by Tom. (DGA,Inc)
