Label : Flying Dutchman
Value :
One of Lonnie Liston Smith's most spiritual sessions, and the record
that most clearly shows his roots with Pharoah Sanders! The vibe here
is much more jazz-based than on some of Lonnie's other records for
Flying Dutchman – with Smith playing as much acoustic piano as he does
electric, using the former in long-spiralling lines that have a
beautifully meditative quality, and which give the album a real Strata
East-like sound. Mtume and Sonny Morgan play percussion, Cecil McBee
plays bass, and the real star of the album may well be George Barron –
who turns in some beautiful Sonny Fortune-like work on tenor and soprano
sax!
