Notes
Printed inner sleeve.
This was also "re-issued" as part of the MCA budget series in the early 80's, but it doesn't appear any new copies were pressed with the new catalog number of new labels. Instead, warehouse copies of this original issue were stamped in gold on front with "MCA-700" and barcode with the new information was slapped on the back cover (barcode on shrinkwrap on the back 0 000030 540941.) These should be treated as part of the original issue.
Recorded in July and August, 1978 at Hollywood Sound Recorders, Inc.
Mastered at A&M Recording Studios, Los Angeles.

Recommendations
Reviews
A great (and underrated) late 70s jazz-funk album that deserves to be released on streaming platforms. "Let's Dance Together" is indeed the stand-out joint, but there are other nice tunes on here.
It is 2020, decades later still no CD reissue ?.
I recommend "Let's Dance Together" it is partytime funky disco.
Edited 9 years agoThis was really well produced, and everyone on tape is on game. Great analog recording, 4.5 stars for making me instinctively dig it on first listen.- great album for fans of the crusaders sax man.
