One of the most memorable Esquivel albums, and perhaps the first record that really let him hit his fantastic mix of off-beat
orchestrations and spacey electronicized production! The arrangements are splendid, with echoey piano
lines in the
front that seem to trail off into the stratosphere. Behind them, the
orchestra swings in a tight rocket-fueled way, soaring and dipping to match the oddly arranged piano
lines. Titles include "Playfully", "That Old Black Magic", "Speak Low", "It Had To Be You", and "Night & Day". Plus, the cover's got a groovily attired model, hanging out in a very green lunar scene!
(Living Stereo pressing with deep groove. Cover has half split top & bottom seams, some surface wear, name in pen on the back.)
