Comments

custom gatefold cover.

This vinyl is one of the presents from Görgen Antonsson-san. Thank you so much :)

Inside The Groove

Butler's another nice album released circa 1969-1970, backed up with Gamble-Huff team.

Personal Impression (and brief notes)

Followed by “Ice Man Cometh” (SR-61198) and “Ice On Ice” (SR-61234), here is another Gamble-Huff produced album. Additionally, some of the tunes are arranged by Donny Hathaway. This album is also nice.

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

8 out of 10
