The record

Late-'60s soul-jazz cut from Cobblestone, built on organ, twin guitars, and baritone sax weight beneath Joe Thomas's flute lines -- a groove-first date squarely in the era's boogaloo-adjacent bar-and-lounge tradition. Deep-catalog stuff, more felt than famous, but honest, well-played funk for the crate diggers.
