referencing Maiden Voyage, LP, 275 005

The pop covers on this release are not that inspiring, but the reason why this release is sought after is due to the production provided by Charles Stepney. Lewis's 'Les Fleur' cover is just as powerful even without Minnie Ripperton's vocal, Stepney's own composition 'Ode' is worth checking out along with Lewis's treatment of Herbie Hancock's 'Maiden Voyage'.
