Edited one year agoJaw dropping soundstage and dynamics!!! So dynamic I’m going to deem it a Hot Stamper!! Beats that you should check your pulse if your head isn’t bobbing. All the singing, synths, strings, saxes and sounds you expect from EWF. This album is a winner in all aspects! -
One of the best sounding vintage records. Very crisp. Some of the best vocal harmonies ever laid down too. -
Pretty close to a hot stamper. This LP snaps. Makes you want to get up and jump around like you did when EW&F first hit the airwaves. -
