Plenty of spirit, and plenty of soul – a 70s classic from organist Doug
Carn, and a record that took his instrument, and jazz in general, to a whole new level for the decade!
Carn's got this burning, righteous quality on his keys – a vibe that certainly owes something to Larry Young, but also takes off even further – working in a spiritual ensemble that also features his wife
Jean Carn on vocals – sounding way more like a righteous jazz singer than on her later soul sides for Philly International! Other players are great, too – and include Charles Tolliver on flugelhorn, Garnett Brown on trombone, George Harper on tenor and soprano sax, Buster Williams on bass, and Alphonse Mouzon on drums. Tracks include "New Moon", "Trance Dance", "My Spirit", "Blue In Green", and "Arise & Shine".
(Tan label quad pressing! Cover has some light wear, and a tiny bit of splitting on the spine. Vinyl is great.)
