Lauren Budd Fhm 100 Sexiest Women In The World Launch, London May 4, 2011

Before they were taken up by a major label as another Seattle band, Best Kissers In The World stayed in their hometown to release one of their first recordings in 1991, a 5-song self-titled EP. They released two versions, one in stereo and the other in mono, and this is the mono pressing. The closing song is a duet with singer Carrie Akre, then of Hammerbox, later of Goodness and then a solo artist.

This overlooked gem has thirty two tracks of great music. The list includes: Herbie Hancock, Lou Donaldson, Stan Kenton, Horace Silver, Joe Henderson, Candido, Stanley Turrentine, Kenny Burrell and Willie Bobo among others. In fact you get two compact discs of latin fused jazz.
