sliding windows and moonbeams



Taking up the slack from a recent post by Sheridan Dupre III, stepping off sun dappled kerb into twilight, here is a positively chilled vibe lingering in the shadow.

Because less is more, and I've been feeling a mite agitated of late. Spiky.

Lonnie Liston Smith: keyboards;
Donald Smith: flute;
Cecil McBee: bass;
Lawrence Killian: percussion, congas;
Art Gore: drums;
Michael Carvin: percussion;

Produced by Bob Thiele and Lonnie Liston Smith.

Hey Sibling, great blog, thanks for all the great vibes, superb Lonnie Liston track, have not heard this since Danny Bukem ripped it off all those years ago.

Thank you, I Spy. Is that LTJ Bukem you are referring to ? Thanks for the tip...

Which is the track in question ? I am nosy, and I am not at all sure I know it.

Hey ib, right era but wrong artist sorry, it was Roni Size 'It's a Jazz Thing' although all LTJ's work is heavily influenced by this record.

Thanks again, have a good weekend
