    Guitar riff on Ride Sally Ride was sampled for Most Wanted’s Calm Down. Nice.

      Found my US First in a UK charity shop for £1. Great album. Great funky 70s instrumental stuff. The vocal stuff with all the backing vocalists is by far the weakest part of the album. Worth owning just for the instrumental stuff

          This is an excellent example of skills from R&B session player. He played on Temptation recordings when their music got a touch heavier. He was the wah pedal guru. (Ball of Confusion/Cloud 9...) This record would not get "air play",but for all of us guitar players it's great to hear the authentic player stretch out on his own.
