This LP has never been on CD before, and the original LP was never released outside of Europe. This was one of a series of European-only LPs featuring various jazz musicians. Fans have been clamoring for this album for quite some time. The date of this release is thought to be around 1970.
Johnny Lytle (vibes); Albert Dailey (keys); Chester Thompson (drums). The rest of the musicians are unknown, though instruments include piano, organ, conga, drums, electric guitar, and upright bass. Not every instrument is featured on every track.
What we have is a collection of funky soul-jazz/R&B, much of it with a distinctly down-home feel. "Mine" is somewhat of a departure, as it wades heavily into Cal Tjader-esque Latin-jazz territory, and it's a real pleasure, clocking in at a satisfying 7:20. "Babo" is a uptempo funky mod workout, which has appeared on some funky compilations. "Walk A Soul Mile" is a easy-grooving funk excursion that could have been a contender for a Sanford & Son theme song, and has been confirmed as a Johnny Lytle composition. It's not unlike Organ Combo music which is being played in some bars to this very day. The tracks I've mentioned are fantastic, but in reality every track is a winner. ~Jasper/amazon
