Sourced from the original analog master tapes, the 180-gram high-definition vinyl LP ($99.98) was mastered by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering and pressed at Record Technology using the state-of-the-art One Step process, which removes multiple stamper stages to deliver unmatched depth and clarity.

Released in 1983, Can't Slow Down became a defining album of the decade and turning point in Richie's solo career. With five U.S. Top 40 singles, including "All Night Long (All Night)" and the Grammy-winning "Hello," the album topped charts worldwide and earned the 1985 Grammy Award for Album of the Year. Can't Slow Down helped establish a new blueprint for crossover success and cemented Richie as one of pop music's most enduring voices. Four decades later, the album continues to resonate across generations, its songs woven into film, television, and cultural memory.
