The Band - Islands

Plays only in a Super Audio Disc Player

Final album from the group's original lineup!

Islands is the seventh studio album by the Canadian-American rock group The Band. Released in 1977, it is the final studio album from the group's original lineup. Islands primarily contains previously unreleased songs from The Band's career to that point including their 1976 cover of "Georgia On My Mind" which they recorded to aid Jimmy Carter's presidential campaign. The album was released to fulfill the group's contract with Capitol Records prior to the release of their soundtrack to The Last Waltz on the Warner Bros. Records label.
