I have that with a different (earlier?) cover. I like it. Interesting interpretations and performances.

I also have it with the different cover, prefer the one I posted, which I found when I googled the images.  I agree with your assessment,  Picked it up cheap ($3) to give a listen, and it unexpectedly has proven to be a keeper.

I've been on a Stitt kick and was shocked to see this available new from Amazon for $3.31 and eligible for free Prime shipping.  I bought the last copy and the price is back up to $12.98 while it is out of stock.

Charette's new to me... liking what I'm hearing so far. A very subtle player who seems to have listened closely to both Larry Young and Shirley Scott. Will be interested to hear what he sounds like in an ensemble.

Hubert Laws "Afro-Centric." CTI (on BGP cd).

Hubert and his brother Ronnie are two exceptionally gifted technical and expressive players, but with different interests and goals.

I have neglected Hubert's CTI output for a long time and am revisiting it. There's some amazing music on these. This one and the second side of its predecessor, "The Crying Game," really give a 'seventies psychedelic fusion journey with a melding of classical, progressive sounding rock, and jazz. Smart arrangements and the pioneering electronic effects and their use by Laws and engineering really make for special soundscapes.
