Comments

Equivalent release: Mercury MG-20425 (mono).

Inside The Groove

A typical dance music for the pepole of that time :)

Personal Impression (and brief notes)

Liner note on the back cover says “the listeningest, dancingest album ever made”, but for our later ears it's just a modest easy-listening sound. Anyway the recording quality and press quality is very nice.

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

4 out of 10
