Album Notes & Community Reviews

Building relentlessly upon his groundbreaking 'Hot Buttered Soul' template, the visionary artist further expanded his sweeping, orchestral interpretations of contemporary pop and soul. Anchored by an incredibly lush, eleven-minute reworking of Burt Bacharach's 'The Look of Love', the LP solidified his absolute dominance in the emerging progressive soul movement.
