One on One is an album by jazz keyboardist Bob James and guitarist Earl Klugh that won the Grammy Award for Best Pop Instrumental Performance in 1981. In 1982 the album was certified gold in the United States. Bob James and Earl Klugh’s highly lucid, beautifully restrained ‘One On One’ album helped pave the way for the so-called ’smooth jazz’ phenomenon of the 1980s and 90s. Salvo is delighted to present the Grammy award-winning, million-selling album as a re-mastered, 30th anniversary special edition, replete with bonus tracks, in-depth sleevenotes and interviews with Bob James and Earl.
