Album Notes & Community Reviews
Prolific flutist Herbie Mann traveled to London to collaborate with notable British and Jamaican session musicians, including guitarist Albert Lee and keyboardist Tommy Eyre. The album attempts to blend smooth jazz-pop melodies with the bubbling, syncopated rhythms of reggae, reflecting the genre's rapid global crossover appeal during the mid-70s.
