About

This is a weird funk album that can not be compared in more than one respect to anything else Jimmy Smith did before or after. The cover isn't pretty at all, the style of music is unique for Jimmy Smith and - very special - he sings on every track. The music is pretty good, compared to others things he had done and would be doing in the future, it's mediocre. No band members are listed on the LP sleeve.
