Home / Soul & R&B / Channel Orange
A widescreen breakthrough of narrative R&B, from the sprawling 'Pyramids' to the tender 'Thinkin Bout You'. Warm, literate and assured. The album that made him a star. First in our ranking of Frank Ocean's work, and the natural place to start.
On vinyl: Released during the vinyl resurgence — new copies are readily available from most record shops.
