The record
A late-'60s Prestige date that finds Walton leaning into the label's soul-jazz groove, with Fender bass and electric piano thickening the funk under Moody's tenor and flute. Workman and Heath keep the pocket loose while Stevenson's guitar adds a bluesy, grease-club edge to Walton's compositions.
