The UK's No.1 independent soul label Expansion Records commences each year with the label's most anticipated collection, "Luxury Soul".

Quincy Delight Jones Jr.’s achievements as a multi Grammy- and Oscar-winning record producer, musician, songwriter, composer, arranger, as well as a film and television producer are the stuff of legends. His incredible career, which spans 70 years in the entertainment industry, began in the 1950s – when the young man from the South Side of Chicago started out as a Jazz trumpeter, soon becoming a popular arranger and successful band leader.

Isaiah Collier believes in music with a message. Not to mention drive and volume. On his first widely distributed release, the Chicago-based tenor saxophonist makes these intentions clear from the thunderous first track, "LOVE," with guest vocalist Dee Alexander singing, "Give me peace and joy and loving, harmonies and honesty/ I know we can move and love with our all, joining as one." Collier is clearly a huge blossoming talent and listening to his growth on The Almighty is a fascinating ride.
