Mark Ronson – Uptown Special. 1LP on Black Vinyl.
An old-school nod to late-70s and early-80s funk, boogie, and the Minneapolis sound.
Issued in January 2015, dedicated to the late Amy Winehouse and featuring the smash hit ‘Uptown Funk’, Uptown Special was Ronson’s first UK number one album. Talented collaborators abound, with Stevie Wonder, Kevin Parker, Jeff Bhasker, Mystikal and of course Bruno Mars making significant contributions to an accomplished blend of pop, R&B and funk. As Q Magazine put it: "It's quite a feat to produce music that works for the mind and the hips, but Ronson has pulled it off magnificently, with virtually every track sounding like a single“.
