About this release
Lonnie Smith’s Afro-Desia returns on Mr Bongo, revisiting the Hammond B3 player’s 1975 Groove Merchant album. Produced by Sonny Lester, the record brings together expansive jazz-funk and tighter soul-jazz grooves, with Ron Carter, Joe Lovano and Greg Hopkins among the musicians.
The first side pairs ‘Afrodesia’ with the extended ‘Spirits Free’, allowing Smith’s organ and the horn section room to stretch. ‘Straight To The Point’ opens the second side with a Latin touch, followed by ‘Favors’ and ‘The Awakening’. This vinyl reissue is housed in a gatefold tip-on sleeve.
