Limited 13 CD set. With a cannon of more than 20 albums, Kool & the Gang are one of the most sampled Bands in music history. From their roots in the mid-late '60s, the Band has explored many musical styles from jazz and soul, funk and rock, R&B/Pop, with Gene Redd at the helm for their first handful of albums. The Albums 1 1970-1978 is the first of two box sets that cover the Band's first 20 years. The set contains 119 tracks across 13 CDs, from the Band's twelve studio and live albums, released worldwide from 1970's debut Kool & the Gang and 1978's Everybody's Dancin', as well as a bonus Singles Selection disc, containing singles edits and non-LP tracks.
