Inside The Groove

Roland Kirk's 2nd leader album on Mercury - another awesome performance!

Personal Impression (and brief notes)

Another great performance by Roland Kirk. His first LP on Mercury MG-20679 / SR-60679 was a innevitable success, and this second LP also features his vitality and ability. His versatile talent will come into full bloom in his Atlantic years IMHO, but these Mercury years also proves his one-and-only gifted talent.

Strictly Personal Rating (to what extent I could enjoy this album)

10 out of 10
