Legendary soul and funk performers Average White Band have remained a perennial fixture at top music venues across the world for more than 50 years. Formed in London in 1972, the six-piece band took the influences of their R&B heroes such as Marvin Gaye, James Brown and Donny Hathaway and developed their own authentic sound.

The group's consistently accomplished songwriting helped them to achieve several gold-selling albums and multiple Grammy nominations for Atlantic Records.

AWB tore up the rule book and conquered the U.S., U.K., and International charts with a series of soul and disco hits between 1974 ad 1980. AWB (aka 'The White Album') is the second album by AWB and their first for Atlantic Records produced by the legendary Arif Mardin, originally released in 1974. The album reached No. 6 on the U.K. Albums Chart and No. 1 in the U.S.A. AWB includes the ground-breaking classic "Pick Up The Pieces," also reaching No. 6 in the U.K., as well as the coveted No. 1 spot in the U.S.A.
