This is an outstanding pressing. Just like the very first Van Gelder cut of Mister Magic, this record sounds so good, it immediately make sense why this man became one of the most successful mainstream jazz artists. -
Grover Washington's earlier albums are so much better than his later ones but they are still Good. He is a great Talented Musician and Player , I never get tired of hearing his records. THIS ONE in Particular, Beautifully crafted Together and The Album Cover like a Novel introduces you to this Masterpiece Record. My Favourite Tracks On This are A secret Place, Absolute Mood Changer Melodic and melancholic at the same time. And love makes it better. This is definitely A Smooth Jazz Record. The Writing is excellent and so is the Musical Arrangement on here. These albums are ok to listen to on compact disc, but on wax is where you hear every instrument, mood Arrangement, when the Lp gets low you feel it . When the LP LP Gets high you feel it. To hear it in its original form is the only way. Stereo Or mono Sound Outstanding Musical accompaniments on this.
