Reviews
- Edited 2 months agoI'm pretty sure the album art was a visual reference for "Il mio canto libero" cover by Lucio Battisti from 1972.
https://www.discogs.com/it/release/2219954-Lucio-Battisti-Il-Mio-Canto-Libero
And it is not a coincidence that at the end of Lucio's title track one can feel the same spiritual mood which pervades Mary Lou's masterpiece! - "Praise The Lord" is the gem track here. Absolutely fantastic Dancefloor Party Jazz masterpiece. The guitar from Grant Green is the icing on the cake.
