Reviews
A very unusual record to have the Ventures name attached to. All disco songs that seem to have no involvement from any members of the Ventures, other than co-writing credits on track B2.
The musicians are top notch studio guys - Larry Carlton's guitar is very evident - but it's not really a guitar-centered record like you would expect from a Ventures record.
Track B1 - -was actually released as a single under The Ventures name
