Livin In The City

Out Of Stock

Add Item to Want List
LP (Item 576277) Favorite (France), 1978 — Condition: New Copy

Late 70s funky, jazzy soul from The Melton Brothers – recorded live in a few venues around PA in 1978, which is especially impressive given the tight, yet laidback groove the seem to kick out effortlessly as well as perfectly layered lead and harmony backing vocals! The illustration of palm trees and a setting sun on the back cover is pretty apt for the soulful sounds here – breezy, laidback and quite wonderful! Keyboards and percussion are pretty prominent in their approach, and the tracks include "Operator", "Willingtown", "Money", "Sail Away", "Calypso", "I'll Take You There", "Livin' In The City" and more.  © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
