Transitions, the third album from Boston ska stalwarts Westbound Train, is finally receiving its first ever vinyl pressing, 17 years after its initial release on Tim Armstrongs Hellcat Records. The 16-song set showcases the band in peak form, dexterously weaving flavors of early Jamaican ska, reggae, and rocksteady with the 60s American influences of jazz, soul, and funk to create their own authentic sound. As AllMusic states in their 4-star review, Transitions isnt just an homage to the past, but a reinvention of all its power and glory. Frontman Obi Fernandez provides powerful, emotive vocal performances throughout the record, and Alex Desert of Hepcat lends his signature voice for two cuts. The double LP comes housed in a gatefold jacket, featuring newly penned liner notes from producer and engineer Brian Wallace. Track List: Disc: 1 1. Transition 1 2. Please Forgive Me 3.
